CREDIT Lecture credit 3 hours. research lab is a separate one hour data track ,1101 series). PREREQUISITES One twelvemonth of high school chemistry. College level algebra recommended. Grading Grading will be based on a 100 point scale 90 100 points = A 80 89 = B 70 -79 = C 60 69 = D Below 60 = F dislocation of points is as follows 65% 4 unit trials (lowest is dropped) 10% Homework/ quiz grade 20% final exam. EXPECTIONS and OUTCOMES 1. To understand and apply methods and appropriate applied sc ience to the study of natural sciences. 2.To recognize scientific and quantitative methods and the differences between these approches and other(a) methods of inquiry and to communicate findings, analyses and interpretation both orally and in writing. 3. To make and recognize the differences among competing scientific theories. 1 4. To demonstrate knowlegdge of the major issues and problems facing mod science, including issuses that touch upon ethics, values, and public policies. 5. To demonstrate knowledge of the interdependence of science and engineering and their influence on, and contribution to, modern culture.CLASSROOM POLICIES Only chemistry questions will be addressed in class. All other questions about the course or grading will be addressed individually during office hours. A schedule showing due dates for assignments and exams will be available on Blackboard. Attendence Attendance may be taken periodically. Professors will contrive the resource of dropping a student after three unexplained absences. assimilators arriving former(a) to class should notify me that they are present. Class roles are periodically taken and attendence from groups work is also noted.Make-up exams will not be given. The lowest exam score will be dropped and in cases where students miss an exam for any reason, that exam will be the one dropped. Missing two exams commonly results in a F for the course. Cheating Students will be dropped from this course for cheating. Cheating consists of submitting individual elses work under your name, obtaining instruction from someone other than the instructor during an exam. Cellular Phones Cellular phones and/or beepers should be sullen off or set to vibrate during the class period. ============================================================== Disability If you have a documented disability which will make it difficult for you to feed out the work as outlined and/or if you need limited accommodations or assistance due to the disability, please contact the Office of work for Persons with Disabilities (OSPD), at Emilia Ramirez-Schunior Hall, Rm. 1. 101 immediately, or the Associate Director at emailprotected edu, 956/316-7005.
