Assignments
Exams:
There are three tests and one cumulative final exam. Tests and exam are 100 points each
and may be multiple choice, essay, short answer, or a combination of these. One test
may be chosen to re-write, to earn half the points back. Rather than dropping a test or
replacing a test with the final, I feel that a re-write offers the opportunity to learn the
material a second time and therefore, have better success on the final and with the
cumulative nature of the course material!
Assignments: Class participation assignments such as homework, quizzes, one menu assignment of
your choice, etc. are worth a total of 130 points. Class participation includes
communicating and working effectively with classmates.
In all assignments,
calculations and work should be shown for full credit (including online homework – your
hand-written notes may be collected at any time). Only an official documented excuse
will allow points for late assignments and homework.
Laboratory: Lab is worth a total of 135 points. Prepare in advance to be able to work efficiently and
safely in the lab. Each lab requires: 1) a pre-lab to be completed prior to the lab and 2) a
lab report to be completed after the lab.
Completed pre-lab and punctuality are required to participate in the experiment.
Record careful observations and data during the lab. The lowest lab report score will be
dropped. There are no make-up labs, however missing a lab counts as the dropped lab.
Check out with your lab notebook with me at the end of each lab. All equipment shall
be put away in its proper location and glassware cleaned and stored by 1:05pm.
Lab reports including the pre-lab are due one week after completion of the experiment.
PRE-LAB
o Title/Experiment number/Date
o Hypothesis or purpose statement
o Mechanism and chemical equation (if applicable). For mechanisms, the complete
structure for each reagent should be neatly drawn with corresponding curved arrows.
The chemical equation should include the molecular weight, actual weight used, and
number of moles written under the reactants. Stoichiometric calculations should
include the mass/volume/concentration of each chemical to be used and theoretical
yield of product in weight and in moles.

PRE-LAB
CON’T

o A table listing the relevant properties of any chemicals to be used in the lab
(reactants, reagents, and solvents): name, any hazardous characteristics, melting
point/boiling point, solubility, etc. (use SDS as source for this information)
o A summary of the lab procedure: the procedure is a detailed list or outline or flow
chart of each step of the lab (no need for complete sentences but you should be able
to complete the lab with only your lab notebook). This procedure should be written
on the left-hand side of the page so that observations may be written on the righthand side during the lab.
REPORT
LAB REPORT (Worth 15 points each.)
Continuing in your lab notebook…
o During the experiment, write down detailed observations, raw data, and
measurements (melting point, boiling point, IR spectra, etc.) as you work. It is
better to have too many observations rather than too few.
o After the lab, show any calculations such as actual yield.
o Add a discussion section in complete sentences that summarizes your results and a
conclusion statement. Always discuss the question: was the purpose or hypothesis
met?
o Tear out and staple the copy lab notebook pages to turn in at the END of the lab
period for lab practical and at the BEGINNING of the next lab class for regular lab
reports. Labs turned in after the first 5 minutes of class will receive 25% off if
turned in by the next class. Labs will receive 50% off for the second class day late,
and no points after that.

Class Behavior
Attendance:
Students are expected to attend all courses and course activities for which they are
registered. Attendance will be kept for each class. Your best chance for high class
participation grades and lab grades is to be present. Four unexcused absences from
class or lab are allowed; more than four will lead to a grade of “W”. Absence from
one lab will count as your dropped grade. Three tardies will equal one absence. Get
to class on time and turn off your phones – students who arrive on time and are
engaged in the class help their classmates and the instructor!
All tests must be taken on or before dates assigned. No makeup tests are available
without explicit consent of instructor which will only be granted in case of official
documented extreme emergency. The final exam is required, cumulative, and must be
taken on or before the date published for final exams. Missing the final will result in
a grade of F.
Tests, exams, and labs will begin on time. Extra time will not be allowed for
late-comers. Get to class on time and do not leave class early – students who enter
class late or leave class early distract their classmates and the instructor.
Safety:
Core
Competencies:
During the lab, proper attire including full coverage clothing, lab coat/apron, fullcoverage/closed-toe shoes, and safety goggles must be worn at all times. Proper
attire is required to participate in the experiments; without it, you will be asked
to leave and receive a grade of 0. No eating/drinking in lab. After each lab, you
are expected to clean both your station and the community areas and clean, dry, and
replace all glassware in order to remain in the lab and receive full points on your lab
grade. If you are concerned about any medical conditions (including pregnancy) that
may compromise your safety in the lab, I can provide a list of chemicals used in
course experiments to show to your physician.
THINK – You will analyze data and ideas, employ formulas and procedures, and
draw and revise supported conclusions.
VALUE – You will recognize relevant information and manage work time.
COMMUNICATE – You will exchange ideas and information with others.
ACT – You will responsibly set goals and reflectively solve problems, individually
and in groups.
Success in the class originates from actively thinking and working through many
different practice problems. Sitting passively or listening to someone else explain or
simply reading without analyzing the content will not help as much as one might
think.
Please note that the syllabus is subject to change during the term by announcement by the
professor in class or on Blackboard. Your continued participation in this course after the dropadd deadline period constitutes an agreement with and an acceptance of the conditions presented
in this syllabus.

College Policies
Academic Dishonesty: Don’t do it! All forms of academic dishonesty are prohibited at Valencia College. Academic
dishonesty includes, but is not limited to: plagiarism, cheating, furnishing false information, forgery, alteration or misuse of
documents, misconduct during a test situation, and misuse of identification with intent to defraud or deceive. It is assumed
that all work that you turn in is your own. It is cheating to show someone your test, homework, or lab work so that they
may copy the work instead of doing it themselves. It is cheating to copy directly from any reference. Cheating will result
in a grade of zero for all parties involved. Any evidence of cheating on any assignment or exam will result in 0 for the
first offense and an “F” for the entire course after that warning. Each student is expected to be informed and compliant
with the college policy on academic honesty in the Valencia College Student Handbook.
Disability Support Services: Students with disabilities who qualify for academic accommodations must provide a
notification from the Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) and discuss specific needs with the instructor, preferably
during the first two weeks of class. The Office for Students with Disabilities determines accommodations based on
appropriate documentation of disabilities. Osceola Campus Office 2-140A Ph: 407-582-4167.
Withdrawal Policy for Individual Courses: Per Valencia Policy 4-07 (Academic Progress, Course Attendance and Grades, and
Withdrawals), a student who withdraws from class before the withdrawal deadline of July 10, 2015 will receive a grade of “W.”
A student is not permitted to withdraw after the withdrawal deadline. A faculty member MAY withdraw a student up to the
beginning of the final exam period for violation of the class attendance policy. A student who is withdrawn by faculty for
violation of the class attendance policy will receive a grade of “W.” Any student who withdraws or is withdrawn from a class
during a third or subsequent attempt in the same course will be assigned a grade of “F.” For a complete policy and procedure
overview on Valencia Policy 4-07, please see the Valencia Catalog.
Expected Student Conduct: Valencia College is dedicated not only to the advancement of knowledge and learning but is
concerned with the development of responsible personal and social conduct. By enrolling at Valencia College, a student assumes
the responsibility for becoming familiar with and abiding by the general rules of conduct. The primary responsibility for
managing the classroom environment rests with the faculty. Students who engage in any prohibited or unlawful acts that result in
disruption of a class may be directed by the faculty to leave the class. Violation of any classroom or Valencia’s rules may lead to
disciplinary action up to and including expulsion from Valencia. Disciplinary action could include being withdrawn from class,
disciplinary warning, probation, suspension, expulsion, or other appropriate and authorized actions. You will find the Student
Code of Conduct in the current Valencia Student Handbook.
Computer/Equipment Use Policy: Use of computers in the Business, IT, and Public Service classrooms at Valencia College is
restricted to those activities designated by the instructor to enhance the class materials. Any other use is strictly forbidden.
Inappropriate use includes, but is not limited to:
 Use of computer to send E-mail or access Internet sites not specifically assigned in class.
 Use of computer for job, internship, homework or other activities not assigned in class.
 Modifying any hardware or software system configuration or setting.
 Activities not in accordance with the Valencia Student Code of Conduct
Use of computers in the departmental open lab is limited to those activities involved with preparing homework or coursework in
this department and is subject to the same restriction as listed above. Computer use is remotely monitored; any student using
computers inappropriately may be subject to dismissal from class or banishment from the lab. Subsequent offense may be sent to
the campus administration for further disciplinary action.
Student Help: Valencia College is interested in making sure all our students have a rewarding and successful college
experience. To that purpose, Valencia students can get immediate help with issues dealing with stress, anxiety, depression,
adjustment difficulties, substance abuse, time management as well as relationship problems dealing with school, home or
work. BayCare Behavioral Health Student Assistance Program (SAP) services are free to all Valencia students and available 24
hours a day by calling (800) 878-5470. Free face-to-face counseling is also available.
Campus Security: from our chief of security: We want to reassure you that our security officers are here around the clock to
ensure the safety and security of the campus community. It’s important to remain alert and aware of your surroundings,
especially during the early morning or evening hours. Remember that you can always call security for an escort if you feel
uncomfortable walking alone on campus. Finally, report any suspicious persons to Lake Nona Campus Security at 407-5827000 or by using the yellow emergency call boxes located on light poles in the parking lots and along walkways.
