Program Student Learning Outcomes Means of Assessment and Criteria for
Success
1. Interpret laboratory data and
communicate quantitative and relational
information.
Students will read laboratory instructions
and provide data to support their
computations and conclusion(s).
They will write laboratory reports using
short paragraphs stating the hypothesis,
data and conclusion(s).
Scored by department rubric.
2. Apply science formulas to solve
problems that arise in the laboratory
setting with and without the use of
technology
3. Communicate content information
formally, using appropriate science
notation and terminology.
4. Engage in logical and critical thinking.
Attendance: This course is a combination of lab. and lecture and if you stop
attending the lab. but participate the lecture you will fail the course. You are
responsible for all announcements and the materials covered in the lecture if you
miss the class.

&VisibilityContext=WSSWikiPage * Scientific Calculator (capable of doing exponential notation calculations)
* Safety Goggles (Instructor Approved)
* Combination lock: Padlocks (one per group) must be purchased from the bookstore by
the second lab. meeting. All other padlocks are unacceptable.
* Scranton: Scranton number 882
Exams: Exams will be given at the beginning of lecture. The maximum time for each
exam is 1 hour and 20 minutes depending on the materials being tested. Exams are
multiple choice and you are responsible for anything covered and discussed in the lecture
according to the course curriculum requirement. In general, materials discussed or
stressed in the class are what the instructor believes to be most important and most likely
to be stressed on exams. The first exam will cover the materials from the beginning of
the semester until approximately the date of the exam. The second test will cover the
materials after the first exam. The third exam will cover the materials after the second
exam. However, some of the earlier materials are required for understanding and should
not be forgotten. Failure of taking final exam will result in receiving grade of F in
this course.
There will be no make up exam, you can miss one exam by providing a valid
document otherwise you will get grade of zero for the missing exam.
Homework and Practice Problems: Homework will be administered and graded either
through” connect” : http://connect.mheducation.com and follow the directions or solving
the homework problems posted in the syllabus. All students can have an online access
code. Due dates will be announced in class and in the connect site. It is the student’s
responsibility to submit their homework on time. In addition, suggested problems from
the textbook will be provided. It is highly advisable that students also work through the
suggested problems in addition to the homework. The suggested problems will not be
collected or graded.

Methods of Evaluation:
3 Midterm exams (each 100 points) 300 points
Final exam: 150 points
Homework 20 points
Lab. 150 points
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total 620 points
Grade distribution:
A: 90-100%, B: 89-77%, C: 76-65%, D: 64-60%
F: < 60%
Withdrawal from Class
It is student’s responsibility to withdraw the course. Official withdrawal from class may
be processed through the online system, telephone, or in the Admissions Office. Please
check the deadlines in the college.
Laboratory: You should read and fully understand the experiments and the lab. safety
before coming to the lab. If there is a pre-assignment (pre-lab.) for the experiment, it is
due to the day of lab. before starting the experiment, even it has not been specified that
there is a pre-lab. However, some pre-labs. are hard to find unless you read through the
whole experiment.
There is no make up lab. and points will be deducted for messy, unsafe, incomplete or
late work.
Due dates of lab. reports will be announced. for each lab.
If you miss any lab., you are required to provide a valid document and then you can write
the lab. report and submit it. You will receive score of zero for the lab. report of missing
lab. if you do not provide the valid document.
For the lab. policy including the pre-labs. and lab. report talk to your lab.
instructor.
You must wear instructor-approved goggles in order to work in the lab. The appropriate
goggles are sold in the book store. Students without having goggles will be asked to
leave the lab. and receive grade of zero for repeated infractions of this rule.
No eating, No drinking and no chewing gum in the lab.
Wash lab. equipments and your hands after completion of the experiment.
Academic Courtesy: Students should be on time and prepared for class. Talking during
lecture is disruptive. Questions related to classroom topics are greatly encouraged. Please
refrain from side conversations even if these discussions pertain to the class as it can be
disruptive for other students. It is better to ask the instructor for clarification than to
disrupt the class with talking. Turn off cell phones, pagers, iPods, MP3 players and other
personal electronic devices as these are disruptive to everybody.
Cheating, Plagiarism, Academic Dishonesty: Disciplinary actions will be taken for all
cases of cheating, plagiarism, or dishonesty. All work that you submit must be your own
work. http://www.lahc.edu/classes/Academic_Policy.html
Grades are earned. Grades will never be negotiated, appointed or gifted. It is your
responsibility to learn the course materials (subjects) fluently to do well in quizzes and
exams. Study constantly and effectively and manage your time for studying during the
semester. You are required to answer the assigned questions and solve the assigned
problems independently.
Success is a matter of preparation and repetition. Make use all possible resources:
your textbook, the lecture notes, internet chemistry resources, LRC of the Department,
and your fellow students. Please keep in mind that everything in chemistry builds on
itself and the final exam is cumulative and comprehensive, so do not let any gaps
develop.
Finally, come to every class prepared and on time.
