THIS IS A SIX WEEK ONLINE SCIENCE WITH A LAB COURSE. YES REALLY SIX WEEKS.  IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO DEVOTE 20 HOURS PER WEEK TO THIS COURSE DO NOT TAKE IT IN THE WINTER. YES I'M SERIOUS. 

ALSO PLEASE BE AWARE THESE ARE LINKED CLASSES!!  YOU NEED TO TAKE BOTH LECTURE AND LAB TO HAVE IT TRANSFER AS A b4 BIO SCIENCE WITH A LAB, IF YOU DO NOT TAKE LAB YOU DO NOT GET THE SCIENCE TRANSFER CREDIT!  SO MAKE SURE YOU ARE SIGNED UP FOR ANTH 212 (3 units of lecture) AND ANTH 212L (1 unit of lab) 

This website is for both of the classes but they are seperate so again make sure you are signed up for both!!

REQUIRED MATERIALS
Text: Exploring Biological Anthropology the Essentials 2nd edition, Stanford, Allen, and Anton and a log on to myanthrolab.com

You can purchase this book either in a hard copy from the bookstore OR from the online portal page and get an online book.  These are the ONLY ways because you need the book website that comes with the book and you can't get that unless you go one of these two routes.  If you have any questions do not purchase until you talk to me!

TRADITIONAL HARD COPY BOOK WAY

You can purchase a hard copy traditional book from the Owl Bookshop  This book is done "alacarte" which means it comes in a binder and YOU CANNOT SELL IT BACK!  This is very important!  I do it this way to make it as cheap as possible so be aware if you go hard copy you will own it forever (or you can recycle it of course).  If you purchase hard copy you will get the book and a code to the website that comes with the book.  It is free with the book and you do need it!  Once you get your code go to http://www.pearsoncustom.com/ca/citrus_anthro/ and click "intro to physical anthropology" then click "register" this is where you sign on for your textbook website and you do need it!

OR

ONLINE BOOK WAY This is an ebook version.  You can read it online you can LISTEN to it online (yes really) and you can print it out if you want to kill trees.  It has really cool things like note taking ability, flash cards, highlighting, etc etc etc. It is also the cheaper version!

I have a portal page that goes to all my courses.  This is where you purchase your book/website access AND where you go to log onto the book/website once your purchase it.

Go to: http://www.pearsoncustom.com/ca/citrus_anthro/

Click on "Intro to Physical Anthropology"

Click on Purchase, follow the directions and you will purchase the book and the website.  Make sure you write down the log on and password you create!

When its time to do homework go back to http://www.pearsoncustom.com/ca/citrus_anthro/ click "intro to physical anthropology" and then click "login"
