In the United States, there is a demand for registered nurses. To be admitted into the nursing program, students need to complete prerequisite courses such as human anatomy and physiology. Many students find human anatomy and physiology challenging due to the nature of the content. Poor performance in human anatomy and physiology can preclude a student from enrolling in the nursing program. Professors can support students in their learning activities with strategies that can have a positive impact on learning and improve learner outcomes. The objectives of this study are to use consistent formative assessments such as pre-course assessment, course syllabus quiz, reading assignments (pre-learning), in-class activities (during learning), and post-learning activities to engage students in a human anatomy and physiology course. It is important to share these strategies for engaging students with other educators of allied health students. Data were collected on students' performance on pre-course assessment, course syllabus quiz, pre-learning, during learning, and post-learning activities (n=9). Pre-course assessment, course syllabus quiz, and post-learning quizzes were completed on Moodle. Pre-learning reading assignments were completed using McGraw Hill Connect embedded within Moodle. During learning and post-learning activities were completed in the classroom. The mean data for different forms of formative assessment are pre-course assessment (67.8%), course syllabus quiz (84.4%), pre-learning reading assignments (99%), during learning activities (94.2%), and post-learning activities (78.8%). The data show that consistent formative assessments can be used to engage students in active learning, help them prepare for summative assessments, and impact knowledge with positive learner outcomes.
