Read Stiff. A preview of the questions can be found here, as well as on the
shared doc on the website. Record your reflections as a group on on this doc .  Dates are subject to change as we learn more about our school year.

  At any time during the next 3 weeks, watch the videos, linked, and answer the questions with each video on your own copy of the document.

Also, this article in The Atlantic about Coronaviruses is very good.

Cadaver Lab Trip  - CANCELLED :( 
TO DO:
•Respond to these questions on the shared Stiff doc. DUE MARCH 23.
  1.  In her introduction to Stiff, Mary Roach remarks that "death makes us helplessly polite.” Why is it that we're compelled to use polite language when discussing death? Why are we often afraid to discuss it in the way Roach has done here?
  2. Roach discovered that students in anatomy classes tend not to enjoy touching and smelling cadavers, even though they relish the opportunity to study them. Does this surprise you? Why might someone want to work with cadavers?
  3. How has surgery changed since the 17th century?
  4. What options did early surgeons have to learn anatomy when government does not sanction human dissection?

STANDARD:

Press conference from March 24.  Skip to 24:30 in video and LISTEN to Dr. Amy Acton. LISTEN. AND STAY HOME.

26
DUE TODAY:
•  
TO DO:
• Respond to these questions from Chapters 3-5 on the shared STIFF doc
  1.  Dennis Shanahan, who investigated the grisly human wreckage of downed TWA Flight 800, told Roach that the hardest thing about examining Flight 800 was that most of the bodies were relatively whole. He said, "Intactness bothers me much more than the lack of it.” Do you agree or disagree?
  2. Many research studies that make use of cadavers raise questions about maintaining the dignity of the deceased. For example, a ballistics study might involve decapitating a cadaver or shooting one in the face--all for the sake of gathering data. Do you think that the humanitarian benefits of experimenting on cadavers can outweigh any potential breach of respect for the dead? Why or why not?
  3. Why do bodies bloat?  (and do dead people really fart?)
  4. What is the scientific purpose for understanding how bodies decay?
  5. Why are cadavers used to test vehicle crashes?
