Course
Description
|
Examines
the concepts underlying modern chemistry, including atomic and molecular
structure, bonding, states of matter and solutions. Laboratory experiments illustrate the
lecture material. |
Core Learning
Outcomes
By the
completion of this course students will:
|
1.
Relate facts and principles of chemistry to atomic and molecule structures. |
|
2. Understand fundamental chemistry facts and
principles involving substances in solid, liquid, and gas phases. |
|
3. Relate facts and principles to physical
properties and chemical behaviors including associated heat/energy and gas
law relationships. |
|
4. Write and use chemical equations to solve
qualitative and stoichiometric problems. |
The primary modes of instruction in lecture will be 1) Access
Blackboard web site with the use of online resources, videos, PowerPoint
slides, 2) Homework assignments, 3)
Discussion group with other students, 4) E-mail with Instructor, 5) Online
tests and quizzes, 5) Proctored midterm and final exams. The primary modes of instruction in lab will
be discussion with the use of online resources, videos, PowerPoint slides and
chalk board, and 2) problem-solving as well as performing individual and
group activities that support and/or utilize the experimental results.

Progress Report
By the end of the 6th week of the semester,
you will have an opportunity to evaluate your progress in this course and
decide if you need to make any adjustments (additional study, tutoring,
conference with instructor) to assure your success in this course. Grades will be posted on Blackboard. The instructor is available to discuss
their course grades during the semester.

The
lecture points total 700. A failing
grade for the lecture course or a failing grade on lecture exams = a failing
grade for the course. The
lab points total 300 (lab participation, quizzes, assignments). A failing grade for the lab course = a
failing grade for the course. There are no make-up labs. Failure to follow lab safety rules,
including wearing correct safety attire, will result in up to ten points
being subtracted from the student’s lab participation grade for each instance
of failure to follow safety rules.
There will be no special individualized extra credit assignments. Final
grades will be assigned by: ·
Checking the requirement of having a passing grade
in the lecture and laboratory portions of the course. ·
Adding up all points earned by the student and
dividing them by the total number of possible points. ·
Matching the points earned to the grade breakdown
given above. |

Codes of
Academic Integrity and Student Conduct
|
Students
are required to uphold the Code of Academic Integrity and the Code of Student
Conduct. Students who violate either of these codes may receive a failing
grade in the class. Information about
these codes and other student policies, procedures, and penalties is
available on the Student Policy and Procedures web page at http://www.frederick.edu/student_services/studentpolicies.aspx. You
must send your Academic Integrity Pledge to the instructor. The form is
available at http://courses.frederick.edu/_utilities/regform.htm |
Student Services
A
variety of services are available to assist students in succeeding at FCC.
Students can learn more about these services by visiting the Student Services
web page: http://www.frederick.edu/student_services/index.aspx
Students
with disabilities who are in need of accommodations or who have questions
related to disabilities services should contact the Services for Students with
Disabilities (SSD) office at 301-846-2408. Students can learn more about these
services by visiting the Services for Students with Disabilities web page: http://www.frederick.edu/student_services/disability.aspx .

Students are encouraged and expected
to participate fully in all lecture and lab activities. Group work and homework assignments covered
in lecture and lab are designed to reinforce lecture material. Homework assignments are due on the date
assigned. Lab experiments and group
work demonstrate principles learned in lecture and lab. Lecture and lab activities will be included
on exams and quizzes. In case of
serious illness, emergency, religious holidays, or participation in official
college functions, students remain responsible for completing the
requirements of the course. Labs cannot be made up. The
lab participation grade will be based on coming to the lab prepared,
diligently performing the experiments, participating in all lab activities
and exercises, and obeying lab rules. Lab attendance is required. Students
are allowed one missed lab per semester without loss of points. Additional missed labs cannot be made up
and will result in a proportional loss of points. Make
up exam is only allowed where the notification in the case of serious illness
or emergency is provided before
the deadline of the exam. You may
leave messages on email, which record the time and date of contact. Please provide notification of official
college functions and religious holidays in advance. Supporting documentation must be provided
in all instances in order to make up missed exam points. |
Email
Communication
|
All students
will receive and be expected to use their FCC email address for their
correspondence with faculty and staff at the college. Students can establish and access their FCC
email accounts at the login page: https://myfcc.frederick.edu. |
