We can figure out a time that works!**Every Sunday from 7-9 p.m. I'll be online ready to answer any questions you have.? You can email me anytime, but at this particular time you can expect an immediate response.?Response time:?Under normal circumstances, you can usually expect a reply to an email within 24 hours (but usually much sooner!).? My email is forwarded to my phone, so often I'll respond within the hour.? However, I stop answering emails at 9 p.m. every night, so if you email later than that, I will respond first thing in the morning.Dean Contact Information:?Natavia Middleton, Ph.D., Dean of Natural Sciences and Engineering, St. Petersburg College, (727)398-8288, Fax: (727)444-6199,?Middleton.Natavia@spcollege.eduCOURSE OBJECTIVES: Please see the end of the syllabus.BOOKSRequired Textbook:?Emerson and Musgrave, 2010.?A Survival Guide to CHM 1025. (Obtainable from any SPC campus bookstore.) Buy a hard copy at the bookstore OR download the modules from the course (these are a little more current, but the hard copy is fine, too). See the link entitled "Survival Guide Files" on the left side in the Table of Contents for the course.?Recommended?Books (any edition!):Zumdahl,?Introductory ChemistryMichels, L. A Basic Math Approach to Concepts of Chemistry.Zumdahl. Complete Solutions Guide: Introductory Chemistry, A Foundation.Zumdahl. Study Guide: Introductory Chemistry;?A?FoundationOther Required Items: Periodic Table; Scientific Calculator (one that can handle exponents is required)PROGRESS REQUIREMENT AND POLICIES QUIZProgress requirement: I would like you to login at least once per week to check emails and bulletin board postings. Please inform me of technical difficulties that prevent you from logging on for periods of more than one week. I just like to know that you are still "with the program". It is important for me to know how you are doing with the course. If you are completing the online quizzes and assignments, you are automatically satisfying the progress requirement. If you wish to withdraw, it is YOUR responsibility to do so. If you miss three Credit Quizzes before the withdrawal date, you may be withdrawn administratively for lack of activity in the course. You have two weeks from the beginning of the course to take the Policies Quiz. You are encouraged to communicate with each other using the Bulletin Board, and to reply to the Module Discussion BoardsI encourage you to work ahead. It is possible to finish the course more quickly than scheduled, if you so desire.A NOTE ABOUT LAB COURSES AND SCHEDULESThe lab that goes with this course may be taken at any campus at St. Petersburg College that offers CHM 1025L. Each campus runs a different lab schedule and performs different experiments at different times. This means that there will be times when you are covering material in lab that you have not yet covered in lecture. The solution here is for you to work ahead to cover the necessary material before or during the same week you do the lab. It is YOUR responsibility to make sure you understand the material for any lab you perform. Not having covered the material in lecture is not a legitimate excuse for not being able to write up a lab report or completing a?prelab assignment.ATTENDANCE POLICYInstructors will verify that students are in attendance at least once each week during the first two weeks of class. Students classified as “No Show” for both of the first two weeks will be administratively withdrawn.Immediately following the 60% point of the term, each instructor will verify which students are actively participating in class as defined in the course syllabus. Students classified as not meeting the criteria for active class participation will be administratively withdrawn with a “WF”. Students will be able to withdraw themselves at any time during the term. However, requests submitted after the 60% deadline will result in a “WF”. Students and instructors will automatically receive an e-mail notification to their SPC email whenever a withdrawal occurs.DROPPING THE COURSEIt is the responsibility of the student wishing to withdraw from the course to do so by the withdrawal date.? Any student wishing to withdraw from the course must do so his or herself online in the MYSPC registration area found at? well as contact the instructor.?? All students registered in the course after the withdrawal date will receive a grade as outlined in?this syllabus.?Students who abandon the course or do not withdraw themselves by the withdrawal date?are subject to receive a grade of F.? By SPC Policy (enacted February 2005), students cannot withdraw from a course after the withdrawal deadline.?If this is your third time taking the course, you cannot withdraw from the course. (State of Florida regulation)D2L LOG OFFIn order to better serve our faculty and students we are asking that both the instructor and student use the log off button when completing online course work. By logging off, D2L server space is freed, thereby, optimizing the system. In addition, logging off will more accurately record students’ time involved in the online?course.ACADEMIC HONESTY AND ST. PETERSBURG COLLEGE POLICIESStudents are expected to respect and uphold the standards of honesty in submitting written work to instructors. Though occurring in many forms, plagiarism in essence involves the presentation of another person’s work as if it were the work of the presenter. Any cheating or plagiarism will result in disciplinary action to be determined by the instructor based on the severity and nature of the offense. It is the student’s responsibility to review the online?Student Conduct,?Student Expecations, and?Academic Honesty?Policy, and comply with them. For additional information on SPC’s Academic Policy go to?. Students may NOT take a quiz form the same or nearby computer at times that are close together. If I do find instances of this behavior, both students will obtain a grade of “zero” for that quiz!TESTING AND ASSESSMENTClickpointsNear the top of the Table of Contents there is an item called "Clickpoints". In this folder there is a quiz that will only open after all of the following areas are visited (clicked on). To get these points, this activity needs to be completed by the time of the Midterm.Visits the content topic:?Video Answers to the Module 1 AssignmentVisits the content topic:?Video Answers to the Module 2 AssignmentVisits the content topic:?Video Answers to Module 3 Assignment #1 - #4Visits the content topic:?Module 1 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 2 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 3 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 4 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 5 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 6 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Study Guide for the Midterm and FinalVisits the content topic:?Sample Midterm ExamAssignments and QuizzesAll testing will be done through online quizzes. The Midterm and Final are proctored online tests (see below for more information about the Midterm and Final).? In each module folder, you will find an Assignment and a Practice Quiz. I recommend completing the Assignment first and then proceeding to the Practice Quiz. For all Modules, there are video answers to all Assignment problems. Please take advantage of these if you get stuck. The Practice Quiz has similar formatting to the Credit Quiz. You will need to get 80% on the Practice Quiz to enable access to the Credit Quiz. You have unlimited attempts at the Practice Quiz. You will usually have two attempts at each Credit Quiz, with the higher of the grades being used. There will be twelve Credit Quizzes, with each being worth a different amount, depending upon its difficulty (see “GRADING” below). There is also a Significant Figures Quiz. The Assignments and Quizzes will only be available up until a certain date. Be advised that they will not be reopened under any circumstances. Be advised that Mozilla Firefox is the web browser of choice for completing D2L quizzes. It tends to give far fewer grading anomalies.WARNING : The Credit Quizzes do not appear in the calendar until they are opened by completing the Practice Quizzes.?Submission of Assignments: You have no time limit within the Assignment itself (except for the due date) and you have unlimited attempts. The questions are similar to the Practice Assignments at the end of each module in the Survival Guide. After you submit the Online Assignment, you do not get to see the correct answers, just the questions you got right and wrong and the grade you got for each question. For all Assignments there are video tutorials that show how every answer for the Assignments is obtained.Reviewing a Graded Assignment or Quiz: To look at a graded Assignment or Quiz, click on Submission Review...Quizzes. Find the quiz, and click on the little black down arrow next to the quiz. Choose Submissions, then choose the Attempt.Softchalk?Exercises: Each Module has an interactive?Softchalk?exercise. These are a useful starting point for going through the information you need to learn.?Midterm and FinalThere will be a Midterm and a Final. On-screen reference sheets will be able to be used. These may be viewed by visiting the Midterm and Final folders. These are proctored, closed-book computer tests, administered at Clearwater, Seminole, Tarpon Springs and St. Pete/Gibbs campuses. Please see? details, regarding opening, closing, arrival times and how to make a reservation.?You will need a PHOTO ID! If you live outside of Pinellas/Hillsborough County, you may apply for a proctored test at another library/institution in your local area. Please see the link above and make the application during the FIRST TWO WEEKS OF CLASS, if this applies to you. If?there are any technical difficulties experienced while taking the Midterm or Final, you must contact Dr. Musgrave by calling his cell-phone at 727 418 1445, immediately after submission of the test. You will need a SCIENTIFIC (not graphing) calculator for the test.NEW: There is also an option to use the Examity service. This allows you to take the Midterm or Final at home, or another location, while being monitored in real time. There is a fee for this service. Please see? more detailsPreparing for the Midterm and FinalIn the ”Sample Tests for Midterm and Final and Study Materials” folder you will find Sample Tests for both the Midterm and Final. These tests can be taken multiple times and give different questions each time you take them. By taking them multiple times, you will cover probably all of the question types you could expect to see on the Midterm and Final. This is the single best thing you can do to prepare for the Midterm and Final, because it allows you to “shore up” weak areas and you get to experience the formatting of questions in advance. Do the Sample Midterm/Final a few times with notes in front of you, and then a few times with no notes in front of you. There is even the possibility of obtaining 30 points of extra credit (for each) by doing the Sample Midterm and Sample Final until you get 80%.For an idea of formatting, length and supplied reference materials, please see the Sample Midterm and Final on the Course Content page. While the Module folders close during the Midterm and Final, necessary study materials may be located in the Sample Midterm and Final folder.Additionally, the Midterm percentage may replace one lower Credit Quiz grade from Modules 1-6 (excluding the Significant Figures Credit Quiz) and the Final percentage may replace one lower Credit Quiz grade from Modules 7-12.Graded Discussion ForumsThere are 10 graded discussion forums. The lowest grade is dropped. All discussion forums are set up so that you need to post before you see other student responses. Only the first post you make to a graded discussion will be graded. Respectful replies to other student posts are encouraged, but replies are not required for a grade to be entered. Copying information from the internet and pasting that information into your post is considered cheating, and will be treated as such. Please be sure to complete these exercises before they are locked. They will not be re-opened under ANY circumstances!Schedule of Due DatesItems in blue are due on the same day.Module 1 Assignment and Credit Quiz 1 and Module 1 Discussion will be available until 11:59 PM on Sunday, January 20, 2019Module 2 Assignment and Credit Quiz 2 and Module 2 Discussion will be available until 11:59 PM on Sunday, January 20, 2019Module 3 Assignment and Credit Quiz 3 and Significant Figures Quiz?and Module 3 Discussion and Policies Quiz will be available until 11:59 PM on Sunday, January 27, 2019Module 4 Assignment and Credit Quiz 4?and Module 4 Discussion?will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, February 3, 2019Module 5 Assignment and Credit Quiz 5?and Module 5 Discussion?will be available until 11:59 PM on Sunday, February 17, 2019Module 6 Assignment and Credit Quiz 6 will be available until 11:59 PM on Sunday, March 3, 2019Clickpoints Activity will be available until 8 AM on Friday, March 8, 2019?Midterm (Modules 1-6) will be available Friday, March 8 to Sunday, March 10, 2019Sample Midterm (and extra credit opportunity) closes when real Midterm closes.Module 7 Assignment and Credit Quiz 7?and Module 7 Discussion?will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, March 24, 2019Module 8 Assignment and Credit Quiz 8 will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, March 31, 2019Module 9 Assignment and Credit Quiz 9?and Module 9 Discussion?will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, April 7, 2019Module 10 Assignment and Credit Quiz 10?and Module 10 Discussion?will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, April 14, 2019Module 11 Assignment and Credit Quiz 11?and Module 11 Discussion?will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, April 21, 2019Module 12 Assignment and Credit Quiz 12?and Module 12 Discussion??will be available until?11:59 PM?on Sunday, April 28, 2019Final (Modules 7-12) will be available Friday, May 3 to Sunday, May 5, 2019.Sample Final (and extra credit opportunity) closes when real Final closes.?Here's what I recommend for each Module:Do the?Softchalk?exercise. The?Softchalk?exercise combines the information in the Survival Guide with interactive exercises and instructional videos. That makes them the best starting point.Do the online Assignment. These Assignment questions are similar to the ones at the end of each module. You have unlimited attempts at the Assignments. All Modules have Video Tutorials that take you through the answers to each Assignment question.Do the Practice Quiz until you get 80% (you have unlimited attempts). I would recommend doing them until you get 100%, though.Do the Credit?Quiz.?You have the number of attempts shown under the quiz. These are called "Pool" quizzes because the questions are chosen from a pool of hundreds of questions. This means that it's highly unlikely you'll see the same question twice in any two attempts. This also means that your classmates get different quizzes, too! While the quizzes are designed to be open book, I am expecting that you will do the quizzes individually. Be warned that I have safeguards in place that make me aware of some forms of collusion. Aside from that, I'll have to rely on your honor. If I do find instances of cheating, they will be dealt with in a very harsh manner. Students may not take a quiz form the same or nearby computer at times that are close together. If I do find instances of this behavior, both students will obtain a grade of “zero” for that quiz!Sometimes, D2L will grade correct answers incorrectly. If you see any instances of this or you simply believe that you should be given more credit for a certain question, simply email me with the attempt (first or second), the question number and a reason for why you believe you should get more credit. Common issues include putting a space at the end of an answer, misspelling and using “0” instead of “O”. Lower grades due to these issues can often?be corrected upon request. Requests for corrections MUST be made within 48 hours of your quiz attempt!GRADINGThe semester grade will be based on the scores of the Midterm test and the Final exam, the assignments and the quizzes. The point distribution is as follows:Clickpoints: 20 pts You must visit (click on) the following items prior to taking the Midterm. After you have done this, a quiz opens and you get the points.Visits the content topic:?Video Answers to the Module 1 AssignmentVisits the content topic:?Video Answers to the Module 2 AssignmentVisits the content topic:?Video Answers to Module 3 Assignment #1 - #4Visits the content topic:?Module 1 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 2 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 3 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 4 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 5 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Module 6 SoftchalkVisits the content topic:?Study Guide for the Midterm and FinalVisits the content topic:?Sample Midterm ExamPolicies Quiz: ???????????????????????????????????? 10 pts (you can take it as many times as you'd like)Online Module Quizzes: ??????????????????? 720 points????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

This code of conduct for online courses is called "netiquette" and?is the practical code of behavior for working virtually on the Internet. The following are some general?netiquette guidelines to keep in mind in addition to the normal rules of behavior for a classroom?setting.1. Adhere to the same standards of behavior online that you follow in real life and in a real?classroom.2. Know where you are in cyberspace, and understand that many people will view what you type.3. Respect other people's time and bandwidth - so contribute valuable comments rather than?"noise."4. Express yourself clearly online and respect the views of others.5. Share expert knowledge rather than "keeping it to yourself." And share this knowledge with?respect rather than using it to put others down.6. Don't start "flame wars" (emotionally-charged opinions) and work to douse flaming whenever you?see it.7. Respect other people's privacy by not sharing or spreading inappropriate information. If?someone posts information that you think may have been posted accidentally, let them know?about it privately.8. Don't worry too much about typing errors and spelling, as long as you can be understood. But be?sure to spend time reviewing your messages before posting to be sure that they are written?clearly.9. Be forgiving of other people's mistakes, and cheerfully acknowledge your own mistakes if you?make them. Don't correct insignificant problems in front of the entire class.10. Use proper and respectful language and refrain from any off-colour jokes, insults, or threats.11. Challenge ideas rather than the students who offer the ideas. When you challenge an idea, do?so respectfully and with the goal of increasing everyone's knowledge.12. Remember that your colleagues can't see you wink or smile when you type. You may want to?use "emoticons" (emotion icons) to indicate your feelings, such as the ubiquitous smiley face :)or frowning face :( ?Only use those emoticons that will be understood by others, or explain its meaning when you first use it.From :? SURVEY OF INSTRUCTIONEvery student is expected to complete the Student Survey of Instruction survey which will be available online about three quarters of the way through the class. The survey is used to determine the strengths and weakness of the course material and instruction.? It is anonymous, and students will be able to check NA to every question if they wish to do so.? There will be a point in the class, however, where students will not be permitted to move on to the next part of the course without completing the survey, and we hope that all students will take the time and provide us with the evaluation feedback which is so helpful in improving our courses and College.?EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESSIn the event that a hurricane or other natural disaster causes significant damage to the St. Petersburg College facilities, you may be provided the opportunity to complete your course work online. Following this event please visit the college website for an announcement of the College’s plan to resume operations. This syllabus is currently available in D2L for your convenience. Log in to D2L to confirm that you have access, reporting any difficulty to the SPC Student Technical Support at 727.341.4357 or email at?Onlinehelp@spcollege.edu.SEXUAL PREDATORSFederal and State law requires a person designated as a “sexual predator or offender” to register with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE). The FDLE then is required to notify the local law enforcement agency where the registrant resides, attends or is employed by an institution of higher learning. Information regarding sexual predators or offenders attending or employed by an institution of higher learning may be obtained from the local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction for the particular campus, by calling the FDLE hotline (1-888-FL-PREDATOR) or (1-888-357-7332), or by visiting the?FDLE website. If there are questions or concerns regarding personal safety, please contact the Provost, Associate Provost, Campus Security Officer or Site Administrator on your campus.

Upon successful completion of the course the student will, with a minimum of 70% accuracy, demonstrate mastery of each of the above stated objectives through classroom measures developed by individual course instructors.?Rationale:?The course outline for CHM 1025 was changed to reinstate the MAT 1033 mathematics prerequisite which was removed several years ago. It was unanimously felt by the faculty of the college’s chemistry department that the success of students in this course had been comprised by the lack of incoming mathematics and logical thinking skills which are developed in the Intermediate Algebra course. Additionally, adjustments of format to be consistent with other course outlines; consideration of multicultural dimensions of the courses, improving the course to reflect the input and expertise of the content area faculty members, improvements in wording to accommodate new instructional methodology, and corrections of grammar have been made.?This review process was completed by Beth Goodbread (TS Campus) with input from the college-wide chemistry faculty and the other science program directors of the college.??Revised 7/25/833 YR C&I Review 1993-94Online effective session 2000 1.Revised 8/84DBT 5/17/94Effective?Sess?20011DBT 2/86Effective Session 19941C&I 11/11/03, BOT 12/16/03, eff20032.Effective Session 19861C&I 3/17/98; DBT 4/20/98C&I 11/8/05, BOT 12/20/05,SCN Change 11/5/86Effective Session 19981Effective 20052(0360).Effective Session 19871C&I 12/1/98; DBT 12/14/98?DBT 5/15/90Effective Session 19991?Effective Session 19901C&I 11/9/99; DBT 12/14/99Effective Session 19992??? ................
