Any emergency circumstances regarding assignments and tests must be explained in person, not just electronically. Class Meeting Time: Class Meeting Location: M, W 10:30 AM 11:55 AM LA-327 (Lecture) W 1:00 PM 3:55 PM LA-305 (Lab) nd Text: Chemistry 2 ed., by Julia Burdge (either full text or customized text for CEM-122) Materials: ! Non-graphing scientific calculator, TI30XA recommended (Note that graphing calculators may not be used during tests & quizzes) ! Carbonless Copy Top Perforated Bound Lab Notebook ! Safety Goggles SILENCE your cell phone before entering the classroom or the lab! ! All calls and texting must be done outside the classroom or lab. ! If you bring a tablet or laptop to class, you may use it for class related activities only. This is a zero-tolerance policy! ! If you are ever found to be using your device for other purposes during class time, you will no longer be able to bring the device into the classroom or lab.
points, will be given to help students assess what they have learned and what they need to do next. All tests are written, not electronic, and cumulative. Throughout the semester four quizzes, each worth 25 points, will also be given. At the end of the semester a final course assessment worth 50 points will be given. You must take the final assessment test in order to receive a course grade of C or higher. There are two 90-minute class periods and one three-hour laboratory session each week for 15 weeks. A proposed schedule of topics, reading, problems and laboratory work is included with this syllabus. Consult the schedule for test dates and laboratory sessions. Any incomplete laboratory work or missed tests or quizzes will receive zero points. Blackboard (Bb) is a software system used college-wide to make class information available to you on-line. Announcements and assignments will be posted on Blackboard and the system will allow you to view your current scores in the class. You are expected to download the appropriate lecture and lab materials and bring these with you to class.
MakeUps: You are expected to attend the lab section for which you are
registered. If you have to miss your regular lab, note that lab work may be made up only during the week the lab is running, and only if there is space available in another section. If you have to miss a test or quiz, you must contact me immediately to schedule a make-up. All make-up tests and quizzes must be completed within seven days past the end date for the exam or quiz. Please note that no matter what the reason, all late tests and quizzes will have their maximum score reduced by 25%. This is in fairness to students taking tests and quizzes on time. There is no penalty in points if you arrange to take a test or quiz early. Any incomplete laboratory work, missed tests or quizzes will receive zero points.
Academic Dishonesty: I adhere to the college policies on academic dishonesty that are
discussed in the Student Rights and Responsibilities document. You can find this on-line at: http://www.wccnet.edu/trustees/policies/index.php?policy=4095 Fall 2012 CEM-122, MW section Page 2
Learning Support: If you have difficulties with any of the course material, get help
immediately! I am available during my office hours or via phone or e-mail to answer your questions. Please don't hesitate to contact me. I want you to be successful! If you have a documented disability and wish to discuss disability accommodations and other learning needs, please contact me or Learning Support Services, LA 104 (7349733342), as soon as possible for support services. You can also get information on-line at:
http://www4.wccnet.edu/resources/learningassistance/learningsupport/index.php
The law and school policy require that you self-declare your need to receive services. Tutoring is available to registered students free of charge in GM-201/203. Contact Learning Support Services, LA 104 (7349733342) for more information.
Course Grading: A final course percentage will be calculated by taking 75% of your
lecture percentage and 25% of your laboratory percentage. Lecture Percentage:
" " " "
Required Items 4 Tests @ 100 points each Final Course Assessment Blackboard Syllabus Quiz 4 Quizzes @ 25 points each Lecture % = total points 5.55
Lab Percentage: Your laboratory percentage will be determined based on points earned out of 385 possible points Final Grades: A final course percentage will be calculated by adding 75% of your class percentage and 25% of your lab percentage. The final course percentage will be used to determine your final letter grade based on the following scale: 100% 93% 92% 90% 89% 87% 86% 83% 82% 80% A A B+ B B 79% 77% 76% 73% 72% 70% 69% 67% 66 % 63% 62% 60% below 60% C+ C C D+ D D F
To earn a grade of C or better in CEM-122 you must also meet the following criteria: Have attended and completed at least 12 of 14 laboratory sessions Have a lecture % that is at least 70% Have a lab % that is at least 70% Have taken the final assessment

Note that a course grade of C in CEM122 does NOT meet the prerequisite for CEM211 and is generally not accepted for transfer credit at other institutions.
Following the Physical Sciences Department grading policy, I will give not give students a final grade of I or AU to avoid a failing grade. Be aware that the deadline for a student to change from credit to audit is September 7. I will not approve any change to audit status after this date.
Students are not allowed to take tests during class time. Graphing calculators may not be used during any test or quiz. A photo id of some type such as a Drivers License must be presented in the Testing Center to obtain a test. All work must be shown to receive credit for answers. Answers must show correct significant figures and proper units. You are on your honor not to discuss tests and quizzes with classmates until after the tests and quizzes have ended in the Testing Center.
