Attendance
- Attendance is expected and will be recorded at each class meeting (lecture and lab) and in some cases may count for credit.
- Attendance at the first laboratory meeting is required. A student may not participate in lab if they have missed the first lab meeting, which includes the mandatory lab safety training. If a student misses the first lab meeting, they must notify the instructor to make arrangements to make up the safety training before the second lab meeting. If a student has not completed the safety training before the second lab meeting, the student must either drop the course or the student will be institutionally withdrawn.
- Having more than TWO lab absences could result in a failing grade for this course.
- Please inform instructor if an absence is due to an unavoidable circumstance, e.g, military duty, court appearance, hospitalization, etc. Some unavoidable absences may be excused at the instructor’s discretion.
- Students may miss two labs during the semester. It is highly recommended that students attend every lab and save the two absences for extreme emergency situations. Do not use them like vacation days.
- Exceptions to attendance policies may be possible if you need to miss class due to athletics or academic related absences. If you are an athlete or early college student still in high school, please let me know as soon as possible if you will need to miss for athletics or academics. I can only work with you if you notify me in advance.
MasteringChemistry & other homework assignments
- Each chapter covered in lecture will have an accompanying masteringchemistry homework assignment.
- Due dates for MasteringChemistry will be posted on MasteringChemistry with the assignment.
- Late assignments will be penalized 10% per day late but will never be penalized more than 50%.
- There will also be occasional paper and pencil homework assignments where you will need to show your work.
Quizzes and in-class work
- Quizzes and in-class work done in lecture or lab usually cannot be made-up if missed.
Exams
- Students will have 50 minutes to take an exam.
- Unit exams will not be multiple choice.
- On exam days, students must arrive on time and be ready to take the exam at the start of class.
- If a student arrives late to class, they will not be allowed extra time to complete the exam.
- Once an exam has been administered, a student will not be permitted to leave for any reason until they turn in the exam.
- Once a student completes and turns in the exam, the student is excused and may leave. When exiting the classroom on an exam day, please keep noise and disruptions at a minimum.
- If a student’s cell phone disrupts the class during an exam, the student will receive a zero on that exam.
- If a student is found to be cheating on an exam the student will receive a zero on the exam as well as the possibility of receiving an F for their course grade.
- If a student is found using their cell phone or any other device in any way during an exam, it will be considered to be a case of cheating and the student will receive a zero on the exam as well as the possibility of receiving an F for their course grade.
- The lowest exam grade will be dropped. If an exam is missed, then it will count as the lowest exam grade.
Missed exams
There will be no make-up exams for the first missed exam.
The first missed exam will be dropped.
If a student misses a second exam, the student will receive a zero on that exam unless there is a documented situation that the professor decides warrants the opportunity for a make-up exam.
For the possibility of a make-up exam to be considered for a second missed exam, the student must provide documented proof that can be verified and notification of the missed exam must be made within 24 hours of the missed exam.
If a student knows before the date of the scheduled exam that they will miss it, the student should notify the professor as soon as they have this knowledge. It is not a guarantee that a student will get to take an exam early.
If the request of a make-up exam is granted, the student will have one week from the date of the missed exam to take the make-up exam. The make-up exam will be administered in the testing center. It will be the student’s responsibility to become familiar with the policies and hours of operation of the Testing Center.
A make-up exam for a second missed exam will not be the same exam given during class and it could be a free-response exam with no multiple-choice options.
Missing a third, fourth, etc. exam will result in the grade of a zero for the missed exam with no opportunity for a make-up for any reason.
Final exam
- The final exam will be multiple choice. The final exam will be cumulative and will include topics from every chapter and also lab topics.
- The final exam usually cannot be taken early or late, however, unusual situations will be considered at the professor’s discretion and according to college policies.
- If a student misses the final exam, they will fail the course.
- The final exam date is listed in the course calendar.
Laboratory policies (We will discuss this part during the first lab meeting.)
- Students must arrive to lab on time and must be prepared and ready to begin at the scheduled start time which includes completing prelab assignments.
- Completing prelab assignments are an important part of being prepared for lab.
- The first missed prelab will get a verbal warning.
- The second missed prelab will get a written warning.
- The third missed prelab will get a referral to the dean.
- If a student misses a fourth prelab, they will not be allowed to participate in that week’s lab.
- Students that arrive after the pre-lab lecture has begun or that do not have proper attire will not be permitted to participate in lab that day and will receive a zero on that day’s assignment. This type of absence will count as a missed lab.
- Students should expect to take a quick (5-10 mins) quiz at the start of a lab session to test their preparation for that day’s lab activities.
- To receive the full credit for the lab activity, the student must stay for the entire lab period, unless dismissed early by the professor. If a student leaves before being dismissed, the student will forfeit the points for the laboratory activity for that day and will receive a zero and the absence will count as a missed lab.
- There are no lab make-ups outside of scheduled lab time.
- Missing more than TWO lab periods will result in a failing grade for this course. It is the student’s responsibility to know how many labs have been missed.
- Lab assignments will be due at the start of the next week’s lab meeting time, unless otherwise indicated. Students will write formal lab reports for many of the experiments performed and will keep a lab notebook. Formal lab reports will be turned in to Canvas. Lab notebooks will be checked periodically throughout the semester and will be turned in at the end of the semester.
- Lab assignments usually will not be accepted late.
Other policies
- All work must be submitted by the last regular day of class. No work will be accepted after the last regular day of class.
- Technology is allowed during class for class related use only.
- Audio/video recording of lecture is not permitted unless pre-approved by the professor.
- Cell phones
- Cell phones may be used for course related reasons.
- Silence cell phones before class.
Know how to access your CANVAS and your KCC email account. It is important that you find a way to have access to the Internet for checking your KCC email, for using MasteringChemistry and for CANVAS. Check CANVAS often for updates.
Student Behavior
Students are expected to demonstrate academic integrity at all times. Students who engage in academic dishonesty may fail that exam, activity, or lab with a grade of zero, in addition to facing disciplinary action by the college. If a student is found cheating on a quiz or exam, the student will at least receive a 0% on the assignment, but may receive an F for their course grade depending on the severity of the offense. If a student is given a 0% for a first offense of cheating and is found to be cheating for a second time, they will automatically receive an F as a course grade. If you are not sure if an action is considered to be academically dishonest, such as plagiarism or cheating, please discuss with the instructor before submitting your assignment.
Use of AI for course work should only be used as a resource or tool to enhance your learning. It should not be used as a substitute for your own original and critical thinking, which would be an example of academic dishonesty. All lab and homework assignments are intentionally selected as a way to help prepare students for exam content which requires critical thinking. Unit exams and the final exam constitute 70 % of your overall grade. Please treat every opportunity for learning and critical thinking as a way to prepare for the unit and final exams. There will be instances where students are asked to use AI in an effort to help students learn to use it properly.
- Students that repeatedly disrupt the class will be asked to leave.
- Any behaviors that are disruptive, disturbing or concerning will be reported to the Dean of Student Services.
- I expect student behavior in this class to be professional.
Laboratory Safety and Attendance Policies
Attendance at the first laboratory meeting is required. A student may not participate in lab if he/she has missed the first lab meeting, which includes the mandatory lab safety training. If a student misses the first lab meeting, he/she must notify the instructor to make arrangements to make up the safety training before the second lab meeting. If a student has not completed the safety training before the second lab meeting, the student must either drop the course or the student will be institutionally withdrawn.
Students are expected to comply with the KCC Science Laboratory Safety Rules at all times. These rules will be discussed during the first lab meeting and each student will sign an acknowledgement of receipt and understanding. Students who do not comply with the safety rules will be asked to leave the lab and will receive no credit for that day’s work.
Laboratory experiences are an essential part of this chemistry course. Therefore, any student who misses three or more laboratory periods will automatically fail the class. Due to the possibility of late enrollment in this course, missing the first laboratory period does not count as an absence for this purpose. Students who are not permitted to complete an experiment due to a safety rules violation, such as being late or not having the appropriate attire, are considered to have missed that lab period.
