Zoo 430L What's New!

LOOK HERE FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS

(1/16/99) Welcome to Zoology 430L. We look forward to working with you this semester.

(2/6/98) There is a CD-ROM available at the ITS Computing Mac and PC labs in Keller Hall. It is called the Virtual Physiology CD-ROM. To use it, you must bring your validated UH ID card to the front desk of either one of the labs and ask to use it. It goes over many of the lab exercises that we are currently doing in class. Those who are writing their report on Lab 1B or 2 might find the tutorials on muscle and heart physiology helpful; however it is not a source which can be cited.

(1/11/98) Last year many students inquired about graphing computer programs to do their graphs with. Most of these programs are very expensive and/or difficult to learn. There is a shareware that generates simple (no colors or fancy graphics), but elegant graphs and is extremely easy to learn. It is called MacCurveFit 1.1. One of the features that is so wonderful about this application is that writing curvefits for this program is very easy, and the curve fitting capability is powerful. As the title implies, it is a Macintosh application. There is no requirement to provide computer generated graphs for the reports. However, some students have expressed the desire to do so. Also students who do not have access to a computer should go to one of the ITS Computing Labs in Keller Hall. If the MacCurveFit application needs more memory to run, highlight it (single click) and go to the File command (menu bar on top left of screen). Drag the menu down to Get Info, and increase the application size to a larger size. DOWNLOAD MacCurveFit 1.1
