INTRODUCTION TO CHEMISTRY 1P00: COURSE REQUIREMENTS CHEM 1P00 is designed to help students prepare to take a full-year university level Chemistry course such as CHEM 1P90. The course covers basic math skills in addition to concepts essential to understanding and applying chemical principles in future chemistry courses. A short laboratory session each week gives practical experience in handling chemicals and apparatus, and interpreting data. Tutorials give practice and experience in solving problems, and are specifically designed to develop problem-solving skills. B. Examinations There are two 50-minute midterm tests plus a final exam. The midterm tests consist primarily of problems and short-answer questions. The final examination may include essay questions as well as problems and short-answer questions. All examinations are cumulative and may also include topics from the laboratory work. Departmental Policy on Final Examinations: A student must achieve a mark of at least 30% on the final examination in order to receive a passing mark in the course. C. Laboratories Students attend a lab once a week, according to the schedule given later in this Handbook. The lab period is 90 minutes long, and is preceded or followed by a 90-minute tutorial. A completed experiment includes a submitted lab report. Students must complete at least 90% of the labs in order to pass the course. If you miss an experiment, you will be allowed to make it up provided you have a valid reason for your absence from lab, accompanied by documentation. Report sheets for each experiment must be downloaded from Sakai. Laboratory reports are due two working days after completion of the experiment. The reports should be turned in by 5:30 p.m. on the due dates in the report box located in the hall between MC E305 and MC H302. D. Tutorials Tutorials are integrated with the text. Certain essential math skills are emphasized in each tutorial. The tutorial topic is given in the schedule shown later in this course outline. E. Assignments There are weekly assignments in CHEM 1P00, designed to follow the adopted textbook. They may also have questions on math skills that are covered in the tutorials. Assignments can be found on Sakai. Each student has a different set of assignments; you will be given a version number for your assignments when you log onto Sakai for CHEM 1P00.

5 7. MISSED LABS, TESTS, AND ASSIGNMENTS p. 5 If you miss a lab because of illness, please submit a medical certificate to Dr. Paone. You will either be excused from that piece of work or required to make it up at a mutually convenient time to be scheduled by Dr. Paone. You may also request to be excused from a lab for certain reasons other than illness, such as a death in the immediate family. Missed assignments cannot be made up. If you miss a scheduled exam, you will need to provide a medical certificate or other valid reason (including documentation) for not writing the exam, and a makeup exam will be set. Students who do not have valid reasons for missing an exam will be given a zero on the exam. Final examinations are administered by the Registrar's Office and exam regulations are available elsewhere. Note that it is your responsibility to carefully read the exam timetable and to be in the right place at the right time for examinations. Since exam timetables can be changed up to shortly before the exam period, be sure that you have seen the final timetable, not just the earlier tentative one. Departmental Policy on Final Examinations: A student MUST achieve a mark of at least 30% on the final examination in order to receive a passing mark in the course. 8. PENALTY FOR LATE ASSIGNMENTS AND LABS It is Chemistry Department policy that a lab turned in late is penalized 10% for each day that it is late, with no credit given after 5 days. Note, however, that most of the labs must be completed and reports turned in, in order to pass the course, so that handing them in late is much better than not turning them in at all. Assignment answer sheets are to be placed in the box marked CHEM 1P00 ASSIGNMENTS located in the hall between MC E305 and MC H302. Assignments will not be accepted after 4:30 p.m. on the due dates. 9.
