For two-semester/three-quarter courses in General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, primarily for majors in Allied Health, and occasionally in Environmental Technology, Agriculture, and other majors.

 

Rewritten throughout for enhanced clarity and readability – without sacrificing content – this highly student-oriented best-seller offers a focus on problem-solving and engaging discussions of relevant applications. It effectively covers the essentials of allied health chemistry without excessive and unnecessary detail, and puts chemistry in the context of everyday life. This revision features new co-author David Ballantine.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED: A scientific calculator, periodic chart (provided on exams)

Goggles (Mandatory), gloves (optional), apron (optional)

 Email Requirement:


Each student should send the instructor an email during the first week from both your FSCJ email account and/or an outside email account for your primary contact, and the other as a backup contact. Be certain you put in subject box:

32: first email

 

Tell me about yourself. Why are you taking this course? Did you have high school chemistry? When? What grades did you make? What is your highest math course completed? Where do you live? What are your telephone numbers? What is your external email address which can serve as a backup to FCCJ assigned email.

 

Always begin the subject of each email with 32:

Subject-less emails will be deleted or subjects without the number code may be deleted. Attachments will only be opened if the number code is in the subject line. This prevents viruses and spam.

 

ATTENDANCE:

 

Students are expected to attend class and will be responsible for all material presented. The student must sign the attendance roster to earn credit for attendance.  Each class attended will be worth two points, The student will fill out a data card similar to your instructor one the last page of this syllabus worth one point of the two points for the first day’s attendance

 

  Free Time First Lab Exercise: 

 Chemistry takes a lot of time to study.  Each student should identify at least 10 hours or more per week of free time that she/he will commit towards his/her study of chemistry.  The following are suggested strategies for scheduling your study times.  Make an hour by hour seven day matrix 8 columns (hour and each day of the week) by 24 lines (representing each hour). See Master Student Web Site above.

 

 

 

 

Starting with wake-up and end with sleeping:

1. Schedule fixed blocks of time first. These include work, class time, eating, and sleeping.

2. Include time for travel and errands

3. Schedule time for fun.

4. Set realistic goals.

5. Allow flexibility in your schedule.

6. Study at least two hours for every hour in class plus an extra two for computer assignments in the open lab and an extra two with a cooperative group member for homework comparison and checking.

7. Avoid scheduling marathon study sessions.

8. Set clear starting and stopping times.

9. Plan for the Unplanned!

 

Daily Pretest Quizzes:  

Pretest quizzes may be administered before (11:30-12:00), sometimes during, and/or after every class which is not a scheduled exam day. These pretest quizzes may not be made up outside of class time, unless directed by the instructor to complete the pretest in the test center during an assigned period of time.

 

 Scored pretest quizzes are NOT recorded in the instructor’s grade book or on Blackboard, but must be attached to the Midterm/Endterm Exam Grading Outline the day of the exam to receive the pretest grade. This pretest packet is submitted as a separate packet. Students must write the scores on both the cover sheet of the pretest packet and on the front page of each exam.

 

 The student will skip the section of the Midterm/Endterm exam that is pre-tested.  The Pretest scores sometimes may be recorded on the attendance sheet, but only for your instructor’s sense of current levels of class achievement. If you loose the graded pretests, you will have to do the section over on the exam.

 

 The instructor only records Module Exam totals and the Final Exam in his grade book and on Blackboard. Multiple choice and vocabulary sections of modules are online and must be completed before exam day. Scores are placed on the Midterm Grading Cover Sheet. There will be between 50-100 multiple choice question on the midterm and the end term exams. (Midterm for Summer 2010 is 58 questions for chapters 1-5 using a scantron).  Midterm/Endterm multiple choice are usually never pre-tested or post-tested. 

 

The Midterm Pretested packet is listed on Blackboard separately as a 342 points item, and returned after the exam day. Please staple carefully as directed. Likewise for the Endterm exam. The 58 point midterm multiple choice is listed separately on Blackboard as well as the summary total of the vocabulary and multiple choice homework.

 

1.    Pretests are exams. They are not open book. They are not open notes. They are not collaboration with your neighbor.

2.    The pretests may NOT be used during the exam!

3.    You must do the pretests in class. You may NOT take the pretests home.

 

Samples of each section (pretest) of each exam may be found on the grading outline on the web site. On the sample tests are suggestions for paper and pencil homework in the textbook.

http://www.fccj.us/chm1032/32grdSum10.htm

 

Pre-testing is a privilege not a right!

 

 

 

 

 

 Post-Testing:

 The instructor may post test sections of the modular exams that a majority of the students on designated days score low. Multiple choice and vocabulary sections may not be post-tested, except on the Post Test assigned days at the end of the semester. The designated last day for post testing is Friday, August 20, and Saturday August 21 at  times to be announced. The post test is a free attempt. Scoring lower on the post test than on the modular exam section will not penalize the student. The post test will be ignored and the exam section score will count. Improving on the post test will replace that section’s score on the modular exam and the improvement will raise the score of the modular test. A student scores 5 out of 10, post test and scores 10 out of 10. The student’s grade is improved by the net five points. . The student will resubmit his/her exam with the graded post test stapled on top for an adjustment in the modular exam score. If the student does not have her/his exam grading outine from the test, then post testing will NOT be possible.

 

Major Exams:

 Two major exams (Midterm and Endterm) will be administered in class on or around the approximate exam days listed below. Each exam is worth between 350 to 500 points for 800-1000 points in class testing. However, most every objective on these two exams will be pretested and are composed of portions of many chapters. These exams will constitute 40%-60% of the student’s final grade or ~1000 points total. The grading outline for these exams may be found at: http://www.fccj.us/chm1032/32grdSum10.htm

 

Exams  (Approximate Date):


Exam 1 Week 6: Thursday July 15

Exam 2 Week 11: Thursday, August 19 (or Saturday August 21)

Special makeup Saturday August 21 and Friday August 20) 

 

Online Vocabulary Tests Required:

During the semester, the student must complete online vocabulary fill-in-the-blank tests worth 10-25 points per chapter under our web site. Up to 28 chapters may be tested. Each question is worth one point. For every fifty points a student does not complete, the student has the option of completing one of the optional project/papers Chapters 1-14 have dated deadlines, while chapters 14-28 must be completed by 5:00 p.m. August 27 (if required)

 

 

Online Chapter Multiple Choice Homework Required:

 

During the semester, the student must complete up to 60 online timed multiple choice tests(three per chapter-10 questions each)  worth 15 points per chapter.. The first 14chapters will be completely  tested, while the remainder of the book may be tested. The student will take all three versions of each Chapter Test 30 questions worth 15 points. Each question is worth one/half point. For every fifty points a student does not complete on chapters 15-28, the student has the option of completing one of the optional project/papers.

 

Students will complete during the first six weeks only chapters 1-5 online multiple choice, and chapters 6-14 during the second half of the courses as they are covered in lecture. Chapters 15-28 may be completed during the course as independent study to review only the online vocabulary and multiple choice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You must complete three sections of the submission box from the textbook’s web site:

1.       Your Name

2.       Check the ‘me’ box and fill in your email address

3.       Check the ‘instructor’ and put your instructor’s address: johtaylo@fscj.edu

 

MAKE-UP POLICY:

Make-up exams are usually not given. In the event of an unavoidable absence (jury duty, hospitalization, incarceration, and death in the immediate family), you will be allowed make-up. You must contact the instructor, no later than, the day of the exam in order to discuss what arrangements might be made. This may be done with a quick email.  A message must be left on the instructor's e-mail (johtaylo@fscj.edu ) if the instructor cannot be reached by phone. If a makeup is allowed, it must be completed prior to return of the exam papers completed by the students attending the scheduled exam. Missed exams will otherwise count as 0 points and the student only has the option of using her/his pretested quizzes.

 

The instructor will discuss with the class those that are sick with colds, flu, and other common illnesses which will hinder their performance on an exam. On an individual basis he may allow make-up in the test center on exam days. Also sick children, car and transportation problems will be dealt with on an individual basis as well as those that just panic on test days or have back-to-back exams on the same day.  But the rule is generally no makeup on exam day except for the instructor’s discretion. Student abuse of absences on exam day may result in strict enforcement of the no-makeup policy with only the unavoidable exceptions above allowed.


GRADING:

Exams/Online Exercises/Projects/Papers mainly determine a student's letter grade.  The approximate grade distributions are:

90% = A            Two Exams             50%   
80% = B            Labs                          20%       
70% = C             Online MC              20%

60% = D            Online Vocabulary 10%      


The instructor reserves the right to make necessary modifications or adjustments to the syllabus and grading during the semester as necessary. The instructor will not drop the lowest test grade. Don’t ask! Instead a student may prove comprehension of the material at a later time through post testing as arranged with the instructor. The final is cancelled for only this class this term.

 

Exams will be based on materials covered in the lecture/self study as well as reading assignments outlined on the course calendar and grading outline.

 

 

Instructor’s Right to Change or Modify Grading Procedures:

This instructor reserves the right to make changes in this syllabus whenever he feels it is appropriate to do so. The instructor reserves the right to modify or change the grading progress as the course proceeds. Any additional course assignments will substitute for deleted items.  Some may also be modified if not deleted.  The instructor will not add major examinations as a modification and maintain the four exams plus final requirements and their percent distribution.

Our learning community requires use to function as a group. I need volunteers for the following jobs: Attendance monitor; Librarian; Photographer; Reporter; Prefinal Testmaster, Vocabulary Testmaster, an Email Nudger,  and others suggested from time to time by the instructor.

.

WEB-SITE:

 This course uses the http://www.fscj.me or  fccj.us or fccj.info web site giving you access to course information. This course also uses Blackboard for group Email, to list the Modular and Final Exams scores, and check-your-final grade through the Internet (Note: The course materials are not currently on Blackboard)

.

Students with Disabilities:

         Qualified students with documented disabilities are eligible for physical and academic accommodations under the American Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.  Students requesting accommodations should contact this professor during the first week of class with official documentation of disability

 

 

 

Withdrawal Policy:

         Students will be allowed to withdraw from this class any time during the semester through Thursday, July 27 for an B-12 schedule and will receive a grade of “W”.  After this date a letter grade will  be assigned reflecting the student’s performance in the class.  Students failing to attend class for the first two consecutive weeks are subject to withdrawal by the instructor according to FSCJ policy. These ‘no shows’ must be reported to Admissions and  Records by the end of two weeks.

 

Academic Misconduct:

         Academic misconduct or dishonesty such as cheating and plagiarism is not permitted.  Suspected cases will be reported to the FCCJ administration and may result in failure of an assignment or exclusion from the class. Also, the instructor reserves the right to reassign work to students if the instructor senses the work submitted is not the work of the student. (No questions asked-The instructor may tell the student to reattempt the work to earn the daily quiz grade or examination grade or the instructor may assign a zero if second request is made).

 

Classroom Etiquette:

         Students are expected to conduct themselves as adults in the classroom showing respect to their classmates. Only persons registered for this class are permitted in the classroom.  As a courtesy to the instructor and your fellow classmates, cellular telephones and pagers should be cut off before entering the classroom or laboratory. Likewise, the instructor sometimes forgets to shut his down at the beginning of class, so hopefully someone sitting close to the front may remind the instructor with a hand gesture for him to check his phone. Disruptive students maybe asked to leave.

 

 

 

Studying:  Chemistry is a cumulative subject. Concepts learned in the first chapter will be applied in the second, etc. The final exam is cumulative.

 

In order to do well in this course, it is essential to study and work problems from the textbook and study guide.

 

 The following is a list of study suggestions

1)     Read the text chapters before the material is covered in class. At least power read the material

2)     Take good notes and review them daily. Within 24 hours of taking you note, rewrite them in a neat format/notebook.

3)     Work all assigned homework problems at the end of the assigned chapters.  Do not get behind!!!!!!

4)     Work the practice exams that are available on the web site without looking at the answer key. Then check your answers.

5)     Use the interactive web site and submit the online required homework.

 

Instructor Requested Information:

 During the first week of class, the student will fill out a 4x6 file card. The instructor has provided a sample below with his personal data and his block scheduled time.  The completion of this card is worth (2 points) toward the student's final grade
