1 BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN COMMUNITY COLLEGE The City University of New York Department of Science Title of Course College Chemistry 1 Class Hours_4 Course Code CHE 201 Laboratory Hours per Week 3 Semester Spring, 2012 Credits 4 Instructor Information Name: Telephone: Office: Course Description This is a two-semester course sequence that involves the study of chemical principles including atomic and molecular theories, molecular structure, and reactivity. The laboratory will include experiments illustrating the chemical principles. CHE two terms required. Required in A.S. (Science), A.S. (Engineering Science), A.S. (Science for Forensics), and A.S. (Biotechnology Science). Fulfills science requirement for A.A. (Liberal Arts). Prerequisite for CHE 202 is CHE 201. Basic Skills Prerequisites ACR 094, ENG 088 or ESL 062, and MAT 056. Prerequisites Corequisites Student Learning Outcomes Course Student Learning Outcomes (Students will be able to ) Measurements (means of assessment for student learning outcomes listed in first column) 1. learn the concepts and principles of chemistry. 1.

Examinations, Homework Assignments and Laboratory Experiments 4. unify the diverse topics of chemistry. 4. Homework Assignments and Laboratory Experiments Below are the college s general education learning outcomes, the outcomes that are checked in the left-hand column indicate goals that will be covered and assessed in this course. (Check at least one.) x x General Education Learning Outcomes Communication Skills- Students will be able to write, read, listen and speak critically and effectively. Quantitative Reasoning- Students will be able to use quantitative skills and the concepts and methods of mathematics to solve problems. Measurements (means of assessment for general education goals listed in first column) Students will submit written lab reports and answer critical questions in pre-lab and post-lab assignments. Students will solve problems requiring algebraic manipulation, proportional reasoning, exponential notation and to analyze graphically conceptual and experimental data. x Scientific Reasoning- Students will be able to apply the concepts and methods of the natural sciences. Social and Behavioral Sciences- Students will be able to apply the concepts and methods of the social sciences. Arts & Humanities- Students will be able to develop knowledge and understanding of the arts and literature through critiques of works of art, music, theatre or literature. Information & Technology Literacy- Students will be able to collect, evaluate and interpret information and effectively use information technologies. Values- Students will be able to make informed choices based on an understanding of personal values, human diversity, multicultural awareness and social responsibility. Homework assignments, examinations, and experimental observations. 2

Laboratory 30% College Attendance Policy At BMCC, the maximum number of absences is limited to one more hour than the number of hours a class meets in one week. For example, you may be enrolled in a threehour class. In that class, you would be allowed 4 hours of absence (not 4 days). In the case of excessive absences, the instructor has the option to lower the grade or assign an F or WU grade. Academic Adjustments for Students with Disabilities Students with disabilities who require reasonable accommodations or academic adjustments for this course must contact the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities. BMCC is committed to providing equal access to all programs and curricula to all students. BMCC Policy on Plagiarism and Academic Integrity Statement Plagiarism is the presentation of someone else s ideas, words or artistic, scientific, or technical work as one s own creation. Using the idea or work of another is permissible only when the original author is identified. Paraphrasing and summarizing, as well as direct quotations, require citations to the original source. Plagiarism may be intentional or unintentional. Lack of dishonest intent does not necessarily absolve a student of responsibility for plagiarism. Students who are unsure how and when to provide documentation are advised to consult with their instructors. The library has guides designed to help students to appropriately identify a cited work. The full policy can be found on BMCC s web side, For further information on integrity and behavior, please consult the college bulletin (also available online). 3
