Course Description:
1. Students with high connectivity must have a laptop, smartphone/mobile phone, unlimited access of internet at home, require software/apps for online class.
2. Students with intermittent connectivity must have a laptop, smartphone/mobile phone, access to internet at home or computer shops, social media apps
3. Students with no internet connectivity must have a computer or laptop, mobile phone, social media apps
4. Students must be able to perform basic computer operations (e.g. open files in standard formats, create, save and organize digital files; interact with the
LMS; and browsing and searching
The course is designed to assist students in the study of important microorganisms and parasites. It explains the physiology and pathogenic properties of
bacteria, fungi and viruses as an introduction to disease causation, their biology, the infections they cause, host response to these infections and their mode of
transmission, prevention, treatment and midwifery responsibilities.

Course (Subject)
Learning Outcomes
Upon completing the studies of Microbiology, students should have a thorough knowledge and understanding of the core concepts in the
discipline of Microbiology. Microbiology students will be able to:
1. Describe how microorganisms are used to study basic biology, genetics, metabolism and ecology.
2. Identify ways microorganisms play an integral role in disease, and microbial and immunological methodologies are used in disease
treatment and prevention.
3. Explain why microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature; inhabiting a multitude of habitats and occupying a wide range of ecological
habitats.
4. Cite examples of the vital role of microorganisms in biotechnology, fermentation, medicine, and other industries important to human well-
being.
5. Demonstrate knowledge and skills about microorganisms that have an indispensable role in the environment, including elemental cycles,
biodegradation, etc.

 The instructor is responsible for following each student's progress though the course. The instructor should continually be assessing students' learning, diagnosing learning needs, and
prescribing solutions.
 The instructor should foster student involvement through class activities which are essential to retaining students in the class. This may be as simple as insuring that the class discussions
are vibrant and engaging.
 Instructors are responsible for formative and summative assessments to monitor each student's progress, ensure that they are on track to meet the learning goals, and assigning a final
grade for the course.
 The instructor is responsible for reporting the final grades and any other assessment data required by the school administration. The instructor will also want to keep the local contact
people (local education guides, coaches, case managers, mentors, liaisons, or parents) well informed so they can assist the teacher with the students' learning.
 As the instructors go through classes, they should reflect on what works and what can be improved with an eye toward improving the online class.
