2 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 2 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II: CHEMISTRY 342 SYLLABUS Online Class - Summer 2015 Dr. Craig P. Jasperse Office: Ladd 101B Telephone: (701) web: craig.jasperse@ndsu.edu Office Hours: M-F 12:00-2:30 (when not grading or testing) Required Text and Materials: 1) Text: "Organic Chemistry", 8th edition, Carey and Giuliano See required text and materials on website for information. Note: an alternative is to buy a cheap used version of Organic Chemistry by Leroy Wade, either the 6 th or 7 th edition. 2) Solutions Manual: " Student Solutions Manual to accompany Organic Chemistry Eighth Edition, by N. T. Allison, R. M. Giuliano, R. C. Atkins, and F. A. Carey. (The text and solutions manual may be available as a bundle at Varsity Mart. If you use Wade, get solutions manual for them.) 3) On-line Sapling homework Problems: You will be required to buy access to an on-line homework system (see later page in syllabus for details.) These problems will be computer-graded, will give you some practice and sometimes tips, and will help to keep you from procrastinating.

Jasperse website: This will provide links to: Notes for use in class Recorded Lectures Sapling Quizzes Practice Tests Organic I Review Textbook Info Miscellanious Take-Home Quizzes: Two quizzes will be required, and there are several others that can be used as practice. These should be printed, and answered by hand. To submit them, you can either bring them to my office (you could slide them under my office door if I m not there), or else scan them and them to me as a PDF document.

3 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 3 Testing: Either live at NDSU or Proctored for distance students. Testing will NOT be online. 1. Testing is one aspect of this online class that cannot be done online. The nature of organic chemistry requires drawing/illustrating complex structures for chemicals and electron movement during reaction mechanisms. As such it is not conducive to multiple-choice or short-answer questions that are conveniently viewed and answered online. Further, the flexible scheduling means that some students will take a test before some others; hand-written tests that are proctored and collected upon completion are good for test security. 2. Flexible Test Scheduling: All four tests must be completed by the end of the term (August 7). But there are not fixed tests dates. To some degree, you can make arrangements to take the tests (within limits) at your own schedule. For example: o You could complete the course in the scheduled 8 weeks, June 16-Aug 7 o You could complete the course in 6 weeks, June 29-Aug 7. This makes best sense if you are trying to complete both Organic I and Organic II in the same summer. Organic I online begins on (or before) May 19. So you could complete Organic I in 6 weeks, finishing by June 26, then use the 6 weeks from June 29-Aug 7 to complete Organic II. o You could individualize your schedule. Gone on a mission trip for a week? Gone for a long weekend for a family vacation or a wedding? You could work ahead as needed to ensure the ability to master all of the material. o See pages 3 and 4 for suggested 8-week schedule; see page 5 for a 6-week schedule. 3. Testing options a. Testing at NDSU: Any Monday or Thursday, at 12 noon, Ladd 114. With the flexible test scheduling, different students will be ready for tests at different times. The next available Monday or Thursday will always be an opportunity. b. Proctored Testing, local to you: Arrange to have your tests proctored, typically at a local college, library, church or high school. 1) Most colleges have proctoring services. 2) Many public libraries are willing to provide proctoring services 3) For taking proctored tests, YOU will need to find/arrange the proctor; arrange scheduling with that proctor; me the name, job, , and phone number for your proctor; and me a website for the organization that the proctor is a part of. (For example, if your church pastor is going to proctor your exam, I d like to look him up to make sure he and the church really exist, before calling him to confirm! J ) 4) For proctored tests, I will normally a copy of the test to the proctor who will print the test. After the test is done the proctor will scan and me the answers and destroy the printed copy. 5) Because it takes some time to communicate with the proctor, to load and send copies of tests, and for the proctor to print them, it helps to have some advance notice. (Maybe if you me on Friday night that you ve got a proctored test set up for Saturday afternoon I ll get it sent and it will be printed and ready for you; but don t totally count on it! J ) c. Special Arrangement Testing at NDSU at times other than Monday/Thursday noon. Depending on my schedule and availability, feel free to at least ask if you could take a test at a time that works better for you. I might say yes! d. Taking Tests with the Face-to-Face classroom students at NDSU. 8:15-9:50. Test 1: July 2. Test 2: July 15. Test 3: July 30 Test 4: August 7 4. Testing time is 90 minutes. 1) Tests are structured so that a well-prepared student should be able to complete a test in 50 minutes or less. But by allowing 90 minutes, that gives extra time to work on problems that you might get stuck on; it provides time to check your work; it provides more space for students who don t work fast; and it provides enough cushion so that you can just focus on your test without being distracted by worrying about the clock. 2) If you do take proctored tests, you will want to arrange for a 90-minute time block. 5. Proctored Tests will not be returned. Given the flexible test-scheduling, I will not be able to send you copies of your graded tests. Local students can see graded test in my office.

4 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 4 Possible 8-week Schedule, Overview: This schedule uses the full 8 weeks. It assumes you are not also taking CHEM341-online during the same summer. If you are trying to take both 341 and 342 during a 12-week summer, you presumably want to divide up the summer weeks, in which case having 8 weeks to dedicate to 342 is unlikely. Test 1 Wednesday, July 1 Test 2 Tuesday, July 14 Test 3 Wednesday, July 29 Test 4 Friday, Aug 7 Assuming Use of 60-minute NDSU Tegrity Videos em342-onlinelectures-2015.htm Lectures 1-10 Finish lectures/sapling by/before Friday, June 26 Digest/Practice/Integrate Weekend+Mon+Tues Lectures Finish lectures/sapling by/before Wed, July 8 Digest/Practice/Integrate Thursday through Monday Lectures Finish lectures/sapling by Friday, July 24 Digest/Practice/Integrate weekend through Tuesday Lectures Finish viewing lectures by Wednesday Aug 5 Digest/Practice/Integrate Wednesday and Thursday In Case you Elect to use 50- minute MSUM Panopto Videos 360/Lectures html Lectures 1-10 Lectures 11-22a Lectures 22-29b Lectures Notes on the 8-week schedule: See following page for a more detailed, day-by-day schedule. On this schedule you might routinely be going through one lecture video (hour-long) per day, plus reviewing them and doing Sapling homework. But there may be a number of days in which you ll need to double up on lectures. o On a couple of days perhaps you may need to do two lectures, in order to get ahead and give o yourself time to put everything together in advance of a test. On several other days you may need to be doubling up to catch up. In live face-to-face lecture, I ll try to finish test 1 lectures several days before Test 1. But then I ll have already given a couple of the Test-2-content lectures before Test 1 is actually taken. If you don t do any of the Test 2 lectures until after you ve taken Test 1, then you d be two lectures behind and would need to double up lectures for a couple of days to catch up. The schedule can match what I m doing in my live face-to-face course. The classroom (Burdick 104) is pretty big and is unlikely to fill. So if you were in Fargo for part of the summer, you may have the option to attend the live class for part of the summer if you prefer that. This 8-week schedule is not ideal (too slow) for taking Chem342-online during the same summer as taking my Chem341-online class. If you took the full 8 weeks for 341, and then use the full 8 weeks for 342, you ll have four weeks overlapping in the middle. (There is a total of 12 weeks from May 19 through August 7). o Therefore if you wish to complete both Chem341-online and Chem342-online in the same summer, it might be more strategic to complete Chem341-online during the first 6 weeks, and then focus the next 6 weeks on Chem342-online.. The lecture videos will be available well before June 16. So you could start early if you wished. You can adjust the schedule to some degree to fit your schedule and your ability to prepare yourself for specific tests. Note: The test days listed here are the actual test days for the live, face-to-face section of Chem 342. You d be welcome to come and take your tests with them, in Quentin Burdick Building 104, times 8:15-9:50. o Otherwise, you could take them at NDSU on the regularly scheduled Monday/Thursday test days. (12 noon, Ladd 114). o Or arrange for proctored testing!

5 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 5 Possible 6-week Schedule: June 26-August 7 Geared towards students who are taking both CHEM341-online and CHEM342-online during the same summer This schedule assumes use of 6 weeks to complete CHEM342-online, beginning on June 26, and finishing on August 6 or 7. It assumes using the six weeks from May 19-June 25 to complete CHEM341-online. Test 1 Monday July 6 (or Thurs July 2) Test 2 Thursday July 16 (or T 7/14) Test 3 Monday July 27 (or W 7/29) Test 4 Thursday August 6 (or Fri 8/7) Assuming Use of 60-minute NDSU Tegrity Videos em342-onlinelectures-2015.htm Lectures 1-10 Finish lectures/sapling by/before Wednesday, July 2 Digest/Practice/Integrate Thursday-weekend Lectures Finish lectures/sapling by Monday, June 13 Digest/Practice/Integrate Tues+Wed Finishing by Friday July 11, studying weekend/monday, and taking test on Tuesday 7/15 might really pay off. Lectures Finish lectures/sapling by Thursday, July 24 Digest/Practice/Integrate Friday and weekend Lots of material on this one, so starting aggressively will help. Regular non-online class will be having test on W, 7/30. You could take yours then, too, if it helped. Lectures Finish viewing lectures by Monday, August 4 Digest/Practice/Integrate Tues+Wed Regular non-online class will be having test on F, 8/8. You could take yours then, too, if it helped. In Case you Elect to use 50- minute MSUM Panopto Videos 360/Lectures html Lectures 1-10 Lectures Lectures Lectures Notes on the 6-week schedule: Test 4 needs to be done by noon August 7 at the latest, because grades are due very closely after that. The lecture videos will be available well before June 16. So you could start early if you wished. This schedule assumes you are starting on June 25, after having taken the last test for CHEM341-online on June 25. But if you aren t taking CHEM341-online this summer, or you are but are completing that in 5 weeks or 4 weeks instead of taking 6 weeks, you could start on the CHEM342-online material sooner. On this schedule you might routinely be going through two lecture videos (hour-long) per day, plus reviewing them and doing Sapling homework. On a couple of days perhaps you may need to do three lectures. You may also need to be using some weekend time, perhaps including 4 th -of-july weekend time. Test 2 has fewer lectures to cover, and Test 3 has a lot of material. It might serve you well to spend less time on Test 2 and more on Test 3 material. If you could accelerate earlier on Test 2, for example taking that on Tuesday July 14, or Monday July 13, you d give yourself more time to prepare for Test 3. Normally you want to get through all of the lectures and Sapling homework material well before taking a test. You want to have several days for reviewing, studying, putting it all together, practicing, and applying the information to test-like problems. So if you re planning to take Test 1 on Monday, July 7, for example, you don t want to be just finishing the last Test-1-material lecture the night before! You ll get killed if you try to work that way!

7 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 7 On-Line Lectures: 1. These are normally recorded Tegrity lectures from last year s face-to-face class. 2. Analogous 50-minute Panopto lectures. (Content coverage is the same. But these Panopto videos recorded during my spring Organic Chem II class often load faster and more consistently for streaming view, and the podcasts download really easily for offline viewing.) Some students may find these to be more consistent and reliable for viewing. o 3. Because the video lectures were actually recorded previously, they often mention Sapling due dates, test days, or days of the week that won t make any sense to you. Beware of those! 4. While there are additional study materials and videos, the main lecture videos are normally 60- minutes in length, which is the duration of the face-to-face class. 5. There are 34 such lectures. 6. Watching videos is one thing; understanding everything enough to do everything is quite another! Getting a good grade in organic chemistry is definitely not a spectator sport! 7. Normally you ll have wanted to work through all the lectures at least a couple of days before taking a test, so that you ve got time to practice, review, integrate, and synthesize all the information, and so that you ve got time to work through the practice tests, etc.. Do you have the Technical Capacity to play the online videos effectively? And Downloading so you don t need to have streaming internet. Note: Most videos were created using either Tegrity or Panopto. You will want your computer able to play videos of both types. 1. Tegrity Diagnostic: 2. Panopto Test (this doesn t give you a diagnostics page, but should load and play if everything is fine): Podcast Panopto: 45b9-8ed0-4bfa6a83afdf/4c75611e-583d ee2-b0d2ee7613a0-3c28dc d1bbaca-b4c1f16d9b02.mp4 Streaming Panopto: Note: if your internet speed was fine for Tegrity, it will also be fine for Panopto 3. Panopto podcasts can be easily downloaded to your computer so that you can view without streaming. Tegrity videos can also be downloaded onto your computer, although the download process is a little slower. If you don t have consistent fast internet, you may wish to download a whole bunch of videos while you do have access to fast internet. Then if you re on an airplane, or at the lake, or visiting grandparents, you ll still be able to view the videos! J Usually if you right-click on the link to a Panopto podcast, you ll get a menu that includes a chance to save/download the video. For Tegrity videos, load the streaming version, and there is a download arrow icon in the lower right corner. (Make sure you aren t in full-screen mode.) 4. For Pantopo videos, I always list both the streaming version and the podcast. So basically I ve already converted them into mp4 version for you, which streamlines the download a little bit. 5. If Tegrity videos are having trouble loading or downloading, for whatever reason on a given day, I have Panopto lectures covering equivalent material on my website for Organic II this spring at MSUM. I used essentially the same notes. (Although 50-minute videos were used instead of 60- minute lectures).

8 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 8 Which Videos go with Which Tests? And Why you need to finish the Videos Well before taking the test: You need to get through all the lectures but then also have time to put everything together. o If you re doing the last two lectures the night before taking a test, you ll not succeed on tests! o You need time to put it all together: review and study everything; practice everything; finish your required Sapling homework; do more book practice; and do the practice tests! You ll want to have finished going through all the lectures at least a couple of days before taking a test so you ve got time to actually master everything and become test-success ready. Assuming Use of 60-minute NDSU Tegrity Videos 342/chem342-onlinelectures-2015.htm Test 1 Lectures 1-10 Lectures 1-10 Test 2 Lectures Lectures Test 3 Lectures Lectures Test 4 Lectures Lectures In Case you Elect to use 50-minute MSUM Panopto Videos s html In-Class Notes: I have a very thorough set of notes that can be used in class. Included will be numerous examples and practice problems that I/we will work in lecture together. You should print the notes (NDSU s printers can print them on both sides of a page), 3-hold punch them, and keep them organized in a 3-ring binder. Many students actually print two copies, one to work through with me during lecture, the other set for working out on their own after lecture. Practice tests, Answers, and Videos: 1. There are three practice tests available for each test which can be printed from the website. 2. These are normally exact copies or slightly edited versions of actual past tests. As such they are invaluable for getting an idea of what my tests look like, for evaluating whether you are or aren t well prepared, and for recognizing study areas that need additional attention. 3. For each test, there is also an answer key, and a video in which I discuss each problem. 4. For each test, there is also a test preview in which I discuss the format, length, and distribution. Extra Practice Problems and Practice Sets: Between Sapling homework, assigned/recommended book problems, and practice tests, there are usually a good variety and volume of problems to assess your understanding and to practice and sharpen your skills. 1. However, for each test I have also created a series of additional practice sets to address important learning skills. Sometimes these are topics where I know students tend to struggle, or where the Sapling/book problems aren t perhaps as representative of test problems as I d like. 2. For each of these extra practice sets, you can print them from the website; there are answers provided; and in each case I have a video created to talk through each problem. 3. Having the video explanation/discussion is helpful for many students in trying to understand the process for solving problems. Obviously the book problems and Sapling problems don t have the same kind of commentary available. Sapling On-Line Homework: More details on a later page (the last page). Sapling's modules enable one to interact with 3D models and draw chemical structures. You get instant grading, sometimes response-specific coaching, and detailed answer explanations. The Sapling homework also provides an effort-driven opportunity to earn some points! (Sapling averages are typically much higher than test averages.)

9 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 9 Sapling OnLine Homework, version 2015 Getting on when you ve already enrolled: (see lower down for enrolling at first) 1. Website: 2. Login 3. Click on your class 4. If you click on Activites and Due Dates in the upper left corner, that will list assignments. 5. Miscellaneous: After you open an assignment, there is an option to print it. I like to write on paper and keep my work so I can study it later, for example. However, this will NOT print the hints which are often very helpful. You can try a problem as many times as you like. But the scoring will cost you 5% of the points available (per problem) for each incorrect attempt. Jasperse can enter due-date extensions. Take some time with the introduction materials, including the training assignment and the drawing tips and shortcuts practice problems. You can go back and work on things after they are due. So you can use these as a study tool later on if you wish (or when you re studying for PCAT or whatever.) Re-enrolling for Organic II, if you Paid a 2-semester package fee for Organic I To register for the course for those who purchased the two semester access, find the course. From there, if you paid the 2-semester access, there should be a button that says "Use your Sapling Learning Credit to enter the course" (provided you haven't used the credit on any other courses). Click the button and you should have access. Enrolling at the beginning 1. Go to 2. a. If you already have a Sapling Learning account, log in, click "View Available Courses", then skip to step 3. b. If you have a Facebook account, you can use it to quickly create a SaplingLearning account. Click "create account" located under the username box, then click "Login with Facebook". The form will auto-fill with information from your Facebook account (you may need to log into Facebook in the popup window first). Choose a password and timezone, accept the site policy agreement, and click "Create my new account". You can then skip to step 3. c. Otherwise, click "create account" located under the username box. Supply the requested information and click "Create my new account". Check your (and spam filter) for a message from Sapling Learning and click on the link provided in that Find your course in the list (listed by school, course, and instructor) and click the link. 4. Select your payment options and follow the remaining instructions. NOTE: Sapling Learning costs $40.00 for a single semester or $60.00 for two semesters. You will be prompted before payment and asked if you would like to purchase two semesters for a discount. You will need to purchase two semesters in advanced to receive the multi-course discount. There is a 14 day grace period to access your courses before payment, and there is a 60 day refund policy. For more information on refunds, visit: a) Once you have registered and enrolled, you can log in at any time to complete or review your homework assignments. a) During sign up - and throughout the term - if you have any technical problems or grading issues, send an to support@saplinglearning.com explaining the issue. The Sapling support team is almost always more able (and faster) to resolve issues than your instructor and TAs. ********************************************************

10 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 10 Book Homework Problems: See List on Page 11. All assigned/recommended book problems represent what I consider to be reasonable test-level problems. I have gone through each problem in the book and selected out those I think are the most representative and practical. There may be a few that are trickier than I d put on a real test, but the majority are ones you ought to be able to do. All have worked-out answers in the Solutions Manual. The homework is a great way to practice problem solving, assess your progress, and prepare for tests. Since solutions are available, I will not collect the book homework. The few quiz assignment problems that I require and grade are no substitute for doing book homework problems! Likewise the on-line Sapling homework will not be sufficient. Study Strategy: Putting off the extensive information in organic chemistry will only make it harder on you. After each lecture, try to study the day s notes and work all of the assigned book problems. Some practical study thoughts: 1. General university policy is that an average student in an average class should study for at least two hours out of class for one hours in class to get an average grade. Fact: Organic chemistry isn t really an average class! And do you want an average grade? 2. I suggest reviewing the class notes and in-lecture practice problems ASAP after a lecture, and going through the material at least twice. 3. Many students print an extra copy of class notes, and try to redo all the in-lecture problems on their own. 4. I suggest working Sapling/book problems associated with the sections covered in class right after that. 5. Reading the book: the textbook is a support resource. If you didn t understand some of the material in class, the book will frequently have a more complete and detailed discussion that will help you understand things. 6. If I decide I m not going to take the time to study the class notes, to do Sapling and book problems, and to read the book, which one should I sacrifice first? Possibly some book reading? If you read but run out of time before you get to practice and understand the problems, it s not a recipe for success. 7. The practice tests are excellent rehearsal for the real tests Some recorded lectures from the summer class may be rushed or not super clear. Alternative lectures covering analogous notes are available from this past spring: html Class List An list will be sent to all registered students before the class officially begins. The list uses your NDSU address. You can have NDSU s forwarded to a different address. (See the Information Technology desk, IACC-150.) If you did not already receive a test , check your junk folder, or contact me. Academic Honesty It is assumed that students at NDSU have the integrity to complete tests on their own. Any student who is found to have cheated on a test will receive an F for that test or an F for the course, depending on the circumstances. A second infraction will result in an automatic F for the course. For a full description of the NDSU Code of Academic Responsibility and Conduct, see Special Accommodations Students with disabilities who believe they may need an accommodation in this class are encouraged to contact the instructor as soon as possible.

12 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 12 Getting Help and Office Hours: 1. Live Face-to-face office hours: 12-2:30 (when not giving tests and not grading): scheduled time NDSU office: Ladd 101B. Phone When giving tests, I ll often be available during those times at Ladd 114. (To step out and answer a few questions at the table outside the door is acceptable.) During May and early June, or late afternoons during June-July-August, I may sometimes have office-hours availability mid-late afternoon at my Minnesota State University Moorhead (MSUM) office, rather than at NDSU. Call or to check or arrange a visit. MSUM office: Hagen Hall 407J, th St South, Moorhead. Phone Online Virtual Help Options a. Phone! Often works very well. b. o I check often, including nights and Saturdays o Many students use screen shots, whether for a Sapling homework question, or something in the notes or a practice test or something. This makes it easy to show what you re having trouble with, and makes it easy for me to focus my answer. c. Sapling: I can actually look at wrong answers that you ve submitted, and sometimes screenshot and -explain why they re wrong and what you should have done instead d. Blackboard Collaborate: o There is some capacity for virtual office visits in which I can share my computer screen. e. Explain Everything/YouTube video answers: o I may explore creating draw-and-talk video recording response to some student questions, and then sending you the YouTube link to view that explanation. Not sure how effective this will be, or how time-consuming each will be for me to record. So no promises here! J American Chemical Society accredited: North Dakota State University s chemistry department is accredited by the American Chemical Society May be helpful information for national students from non- NDSU schools. If your advisor or records office wonders if Organic Chemistry at NDSU is legit, they might ask if it s ACS- accredited.

13 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 13 Getting Registered for NDSU and for the Course, for non- NDSU Students: 1. NDSU application: Apply to NDSU as a Non-degree seeking student student before you can register for the class. The form is short. (note: you may need to copy and paste the links) 1. Create an NDSU account, which you need in order to apply: 2. Apply: The actual application page with links: 3. NDSU admission information page with links: 2. Register: Actually registering for the course(s) Course ID: CHEM342 Class ID: Prerequisites and Class Permits (Override): The prerequisite for CHEM342 is NDSU s CHEM341 (Organic Chemistry I). 1. A Class Permit will be required assuming you didn t take that class at NDSU. (The registration computer usually won t recognize classes taken at different schools.) 2. A Class permit for Organic II will also be required if you re taking both Organic I and Organic II this summer. 3. Class Permit Information: Include the following information: 1. 1) Your Name 2. 2) Your NDSU ID# 3. 3) Class Name (CHEM342 online). 4. 4) Section/Class# (i.e. 8886) 4. the information to: NDSU.CHEMISTRY@ndsu.edu 5. Section ID s: (In case you ll need class permit for both 341 and 342.) Listing of classes and section ID s for 2015 : CHEM341 online 8885 CHEM342 online Tuition: $325 per credit (as of Not sure yet how much that will increase for 2015). No cost difference between online versus face- to- face courses during summer No cost difference between in- state or out- of- state students No cost difference between regular NDSU students versus non- NDSU students. 5. For non- NDSU students, printing a copy of the syllabi (for this year or last year if I don t have this year s up yet) may be useful (click on the links to the main Organic Chemistry I or II content web pages.) Your advisor or department chair may want to see these in order to approve these courses for your school. Organic I syllabus: Chem341- online%20a.pdf Organic II syllabus: Chem342- Online.pdf

14 Chem 342 Jasperse Syllabus 14 Getting Class Permit ( Override ) to override NDSU Prerequisites. Needed if you are either not a regular NDSU student who took NDSU s Organic I course, or if you are taking both Organic I and Organic II during this same summer Special class permits will often be required in order to register for some of the summer Chem 341/342 courses, whether online or not. This document will first detail what to do, then summarize some of the common situations where a class permit will be needed. What to do if a class permit is required to register: 1. the following information to the following two addresses. ( ing to me usually not necessary, but sometimes I ll need to authorize permission for the chemistry office staff to actually enter that permission into the computer system): NDSU.CHEMISTRY@ndsu.edu craig.jasperse@ndsu.edu 2. Information: Include the following information: a. Name b. NDSU ID# c. Class Name/# (CHEM 342 online) d. Section/Class# (i.e. 8886) Note whether this is for an online or face-to-face section 3. Section ID s: Listing of classes and section ID s for other summer organic courses for 2015: CHEM341 (face-to-face) 8324 CHEM341 online 8885 CHEM342 (face-to-face) 8326 CHEM342 online 8886 Some situations which might require a special permit. (There may be others). 4. You want to take both CHEM341 and CHEM342. A class permit for CHEM342 will be needed. o Doesn t matter whether CHEM342 is online or face-to-face. o Why: The registration computer blocks Organic II because it doesn t think you have completed Organic I yet. Since you re registering during the spring, the computer figures you won t have completed CHEM341 when the spring semester ends. It s not programmed to understand that you may be able to do so during the early summer. 5. Prerequisite courses taken at a different school. a. This will apply to students trying to register for CHEM342 after taking Organic Chemistry I at a different school. NDSU s CHEM341, Organic Chemistry I, is a prerequisite for CHEM342. If you took your organic chemistry I at a different school, you ll need a class permit to register. b. This will also apply to any non-ndsu student trying to register for CHEM341 NDSU s CHEM122, General Chemistry II, is a prerequisite for Organic I. If you took your general chemistry at a different school, you ll need a class permit to register for Organic I. This may also apply to students who transferred to NDSU, perhaps some time ago, but after taking general chemistry at a different school.
