III. Resources and Materials
Text/Authors Required/optional "Chemistry:The Central Science, An Atoms First Treatment " - Brown/Lemay/Bursten/Murphy/Woodward Required "Mastering Chemistry" online homework - included in OSU Bookstore bundle, or sold separately at bookstore or online. Required TurningPoint Tecnnologies RF Student Remote Required Simple calculator e.g. TI-30 XA or similar - must not have IR communication or accept plug-ins Required "Solutions to Exercises" - (included in OSU Bookstore bundle) Optional
IV. Exams 1 and 2; the
Final Exam; Problem Sets;
and Mastering Chemistry;
Exams
Two midterm exams (Exams 1 and 2) will be administered during the course. These exams will contain problems similar to those discussed in class and assigned from the text. These exams are designed to take 90 minutes long. Because exams are promptly marked and returned to students, no make-up exams can be administered. A missed exam will receive a score of zero. The final exam The final exam is comprehensive and is designed to take about 110 minutes. A missed final exam will receive a score of zero. Please be on time.
Exam Supplies: Bring one or two number two pencils, a calculator, and a good eraser to each exam. YOU MUST BRING YOUR OSU CARD TO EACH EXAM AND PRESENT IT UPON COMPLETION OF THE EXAM. This is your form of ID and YOUR EXAM WILL NOT BE GRADED WITHOUT IT. If you bring notes, papers, or books to the exam, place them in a sealed pack and place the pack at the front of the classroom. You will be provided with a periodic table.
Text Problem Sets
Problems from the end of each chapter will be recommended. These problems will not be graded, however the exam questions may bear resemblance to them. Also, note that the percentage of students who do well in the course without doing the problems approaches zero.
Mastering Chemistry
Problems from the software package Mastering Chemistry will be assigned.
V. Evaluation
Evaluation Schedule
| Exam/Quiz/Assignment | Max. Points |
| Exam 1 | 100 |
| Exam 2 | 100 |
| Final Exam | 150 (or 350)* |
| Mastering Chemistry Assignments | 100 |
| Participation | 100 |
| Final Score | 550 |
*If the
percentage a students earns on the final exam is higher than the
average of the two midterm scores the points earned
on the final
exam will be used to determine the overall exam score.
Course grades are based on your overall score according to:
Grade
Corresponding Percentage
A
92% A-
90% B+
88% B
82% B-
80% C+
78% C

62% D-
60% F
< 60%
VI. Student Resources
Your success in Chemistry may
depende on the amount of time you devote to the mastery of the
material we discuss during the term. Generally a student should
spend 3 hours per week outside
of class for each credit. For a 3 unit class such as Chemistry
201 it is recommended that you spend
six to 10 hours per week outside of class. Your
success in Chemistry 201 is very important!
You have the following resources to help you with your study:
- Lecture meetings
- Recitation meetings
-Academic Success Center
-Mole Hole
- Textbook reading
- Instructor office hours (see Section 1)
- Internet (try a search under "chemistry tutorial" or "chemistry questions")
VII. A Faculty Responsibility
Accommodations are collaborative efforts between students, faculty and Disability Access Services (DAS). Students with accommodations approved through DAS are responsible for contacting the faculty member in charge of the course prior to or during the first week of the term to discuss accommodations. Students who believe they are eligible for accommodations but who have not yet obtained approval through DAS should contact DAS immediately at 541-737-4098.
Students who have emergency medical information the instructor should be aware of, or who need special arrangements in the event of evacuation, should make an appointment with the instructor as early as possible, no later than the first week of the term.
VIII. Miscellaneous Notes:
This syllabus is subject to change with notice. Please bring any errors to the instructor's attention.
