1 Columbia College Online Campus P a g e 1 PHYS 108 A Physical Science Survey Winter Session (15-53) Monday, January 11 Saturday, March 5, 2016 Course Description Textbooks Examination of the physical world and its basic underlying scientific principles. Cross-listed as CHEM 108 and PHYS 108. Prerequisite: MATH 106 or higher Proctored Exams: Midterm and Final Shipman, J. T., Wilson, J. D., Higgins, C. A., & Torres, O. (2016). An Introduction to Physical Science (14th ed.). Boston, MA: Brooks/Cole Publishing Co. ISBN: Textbooks for the course may be ordered from MBS Direct. You can order online at (be sure to select Online Education rather than your home campus before selecting your class) by phone at For additional information about the bookstore, visit Course Overview Welcome to Physical Science Survey (CHEM/PHYS 108), online. The intent of this course is to give students a broad and general overview of the physical sciences. These are physics, chemistry, astronomy, meteorology and geology. This course will endeavor to explain the origins of and phenomena present in the natural world, with the exception of processes associated with living things. The methods by which scientists have made progress will also be discussed. Students will gain an appreciation of the interconnected nature of the physical sciences as principles learned in one discipline shed light on aspects of another. The relevance of these fields of study to the modern world will also become abundantly apparent. For example, we will explore such diverse topics as radioactivity and nuclear power generation, the arrangement of atoms in common and useful substances such as table salt, and our seasons of the year. Technology Requirements Participation in this course will require the basic technology for all online classes at Columbia College: A computer with reliable Internet access, a web browser, Acrobat Reader,
2 Columbia College Online Campus P a g e 2 Microsoft Office or another word processor such as Open Office. You can find more details about standard technical requirements for our courses on our site.

5 Columbia College Online Campus P a g e 5 Assignment Overview Each student is responsible for: Weekly Readings and Class Activities. Eight homework assignments. Six short essays. Eight Discussions (One post and two responses for each discussion). Five quizzes. Midterm Exam and Final Exam Readings and Class Activities should be completed prior to taking weekly quizzes or exams. Failure to do so will usually result in poor performance due to inadequate preparation. There are assigned textbook readings, website research, and multimedia activities. Weeks 6 and 7 require you to watch a short video. The other weeks each contain a simulation. *Because the simulation may not be accessible to everyone, an alternate activity is included that may be substituted for the simulation. Homework Assignments will contribute to your knowledge and understanding of the course material and will help prepare you for quizzes and exams. There are 8 total Homework Assignments. Each Homework Assignment should be submitted as a word document to the appropriate folder in the Dropbox area of the course by midnight CT Sunday of the assigned week. Assignment details and problem numbers are listed in the corresponding week in the Content area of Note that there are several different types of problems (Key Terms, Matching, Multiple-choice, Fill-in the Blank, Short Answer). Homework Assignments will be graded for completeness and accuracy. Short Essays should be submitted as a Word document to the appropriate folder in the Dropbox area of the course by midnight CT Wednesday of the assigned week. (Note: there are 6 short essays. Weeks 1 and 8 do not have a short essay.) Each short essay answer should be in 12 pt. font doublespaced and should be between half a page to a page long. Short essays will be graded for completeness and accuracy. A specific correct answer is required and a solution will be provided after the due date detailing how the points were assigned in the grading. Discussions will deepen your knowledge of the course material and will take place in the Discussions area of You should read all of the discussion posts and responses. I may ask a question or two on the Midterm/Final based on information learned in the Discussions. Each student is required to submit an initial post (an answer to the discussion question) and two reponses to the posts of other students in each Discussion. The initial post is due by midnight CT Wednesday and the two responses are due by midnight CT Sunday of the assigned week. (Exception: For Weeks 1 and 8 only, post AND responses are due by midnight CT Sunday.) Each post is worth 15 pts. and will be graded for completeness and accuracy. Back up your answers with scientific evidence and cite all sources. The two responses are worth 10 pts. total (5 pts. for each response). Each response should be directed toward another student and should consist of a question about the topic, an answer to a question about the topic posed by another student, a correction of a scientific error in a post, or additional information about the topic that you found in your research. In order to receive full credit for the responses, your response must contain scientifically significant content (i.e. it must help those who read it learn more about the topic at hand) and it must be a correction, a question, an answer, or additional information. (See Grading Criteria for more details.) Each discussion (post and two responses) is worth 25 pts. total. Quizzes will be made available to students by 9 A.M. CT on Thursday of the week in which they are to be completed. Quizzes can be accessed through the Quizzes area of They must be completed and submitted by midnight CT on Sunday. Quizzes have time limits that are strictly enforced. Quizzes should be attempted only after completion of the assigned readings and homework assignments. Only one attempt is allowed for each quiz.
