Students should make an effort to attend all class lectures. The student will be responsible for being informed of any schedule changes announced during lectures that he/she does not attend. 2. Students are responsible for dropping themselves by the drop deadline if they decide not to continue in the course. Students should not assume they will automatically be dropped if they stop attending. 3. Excessive absences from lectures could result in the student being dropped from the course. 4. The instructor might drop students who miss an exam if the student missed four or more classes immediately before the exam and did not otherwise inform the instructor of their exam absence. 5. The Instructor may give quizzes periodically during the course. There will be no makeups for quizzes missed for any reason. One quiz will be dropped. Course Syllabus : Chemistry A225 Fall, 2019 Page 2 EXAMS AND ASSIGNMENTS 1. Grades will be based on points earned from the following list of assignments and exams: • Total Net Exam Score (see below) 500 pts. • Homework 25 pts. • Approximate Total Points 525 pts. 2. There will be four midterm exams during the semester, tentatively scheduled on the dates listed below. They will cover the following chapters: • Exam One Chapters 14, 15, 16 Tues., February 19, 2019 • Exam Two Chapters 17, 18 Thurs., March 14, 2019 • Exam Three Chapters 22 (pt 1), 20 Thurs., April 11, 2019 • Exam Four Chapters 21, 22 (pt 2) Thurs., May 02, 2019 3. The Final Exam will be held on Tuesday, May 21, 2019. The Final Exam will be cumulative; it will cover all the material from the course. There will be no makeup for the final exam. The final exam cannot be taken early. 4. Quizzes may be administered at the instructor’s discretion. Quiz points possible will be added to the total points possible in the class. 5. The instructor reserves the right to modify the exam and quiz schedule if necessary. TOTAL NET EXAM SCORE AND MISSED EXAMS (MAKEUP EXAM POLICY) There will be no makeups for missed exams. The first missed exam will count as the lowest exam score and will be dropped (see below). Any exams missed after the first will be given scores of zero points and will count in the Total Net Exam Score used when determining the final grade in the course. The Total Net Exam Score will be calculated based on the number of points earned in the highest five (5) exam scores as follows: 1. Each exam score will be out of 100 points possible. 2. Each midterm will count as one (1) exam score. 3. The final exam will count as two (2) exam scores. 4. The lowest exam score will be dropped. If the final exam score is the lowest exam score, then one of the two final exam scores will be dropped. 5. One missed exam will be counted as a zero in the exam scores and will be the lowest exam score, therefore it will be dropped. 6. The Total Net Exam Score will be the sum of the five (5) highest exams scores that remain after dropping the lowest exam score. There will be no makeup for the final exam except in cases of extreme emergency. If a student does not take the final exam, then it will count as two exam scores of zero points, and only one of those two scores will be dropped. Course Syllabus : Chemistry A225 Fall, 2019 Page 3 GRADES 1. Course grades will be determined by the percentage of total points earned on exams, assignments, and the laboratory, according to the following schedule: Percentage Range Course Grade 100% to 90% A 89% to 77% B 76% to 58% C 57% to 50% D 49% to 0% F 2. The instructor reserves the right to modify the grading schedule if necessary. ACADEMIC DISHONESTY 1. Academic dishonesty is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. This includes, but is not limited to: • Giving or receiving assistance or information from another student during an exam or quiz. • Use of notes, books, or other aids during an exam or quiz. • Copying exams, quizzes, or homework assignments from another student. • Stealing exams, quizzes, or assignments from another student or the instructor. • Use of a smart phone or tablet to get outside assistance during an exam or quiz. 2. Possession of a mobile phone or similar device during an exam, even if the device is not in use when discovered, will be considered cheating, and the student will receive 0 points for that exam. 3. Any student found perpetrating academic dishonesty on an exam or assignment will receive 0 pts. for that exam or assignment. The instructor may pursue additional measures, including expulsion from the course and/or awarding an “F” for the student’s final grade in the course. The instructor will take all measures necessary to prevent cheating. These may include: requiring a photo ID to enter an exam; assigned seating; and multiple editions of an exam. STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES The student will be able to: 1. Use IUPAC nomenclature rules to provide a systematic name for a chemical structure or a chemical structure from a systematic name for dienes, aromatic rings, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, amines, and carbohydrates. 2. Predict the products, including stereoisomers and regioisomers, and provide the appropriate reagents for common reactions of functional groups including dienes, aromatic rings, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, amines, and carbohydrates. 3. Generate a reaction mechanism that explains the regiochemistry and stereochemistry for reactions of functional groups including dienes, aromatic rings, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, amines, and carbohydrates.
