    NOTEBOOKS

    • All laboratory work and data must be recorded in your notebook
    • Use a hardbound 8 X 11 Lab Notebook - Roaring Spring #77591 5x5 Quad Ruled
    • Number each page in the upper right hand corner, starting with page 1 on the right hand side as the book is opened..
    • The first three pages should be The Table of Contents (TOC) List in Columns
      • Lab Number
      • Lab Name
      • Date
      • Page Number
      • Instructor's signature *
    • Keep laboratory information in a standard format which will support and document
      • the procedure **,
      • data, and
      • results of your experiments.
    • Use color pencil or pens for drawings and graphs.

    * Note: Have the instructor sign off at the Table of Contents (TOC) in the space provided at the end of the entry after you finished the lab. If you do not have this signature, you will be docked for a short shift!


    ** Note:You should prepare your notebook before coming to class. during the lab you should require no other documents or papers on you table except your notebook and the fill -in worksheets, if so provided (See below)..


    The Laboratory Exercises and Case Studies are

    • fill-in worksheets which need to be completed and
    • turned in within the week following the assignment unless otherwise scheduled.
    • papers postmarked the second week following the assignment will be marked late.



    The Laboratory Experiments are Write-Ups and

    • Should be in the form of a scientific paper
      • ,
    • Conforming to the scientific method.
    • Be TYPED on 81/2 X 11 paper and stapled in the upper left hand corner.
    • turned in within the week following the assignment unless otherwise scheduled.
    • papers postmarked the second week following the assignment will be marked late.

    Note: This class notebook is your grade documentations. The scores on returned work should be entered into your tally sheet. If your tally dose not match the instructors, you need to present the original work in your notebook, with the original score on it, to the instructor to document the discrepancy.


    THIS COURSE UTILIZES A VARIETY OF INSTRUCTIONAL PARADIGMS. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO FORM STUDY GROUPS/TEAMS (For discussion) AND TO WORK COOPERATIVELY WITH YOUR LAB PARTNERS. TEAM-WORK IS ENCOURAGED AND IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU BE A TEAM PLAYER.


    YOU MUST ATTEND AND PARTICIPATE IN THE WHOLE LABORATORY EXERCISE IN ORDER TO HAVE YOUR NOTEBOOK SIGNED OFF AND TO BE ELIGIBLE TO SUBMIT A LAB REPORT! EACH OF YOU MUST TURN IN YOUR OWN COPY OF EACH ASSIGNMENT.


    YOU SHOULD INCLUDE THE NAMES OF YOUR PARTNERS UNDER YOUR NAME AT THE TOP OF THE PAPER; ONLY THE TOP NAME WILL BE CREDITED FOR EACH AND ANY PAPER TURNED IN. ANY PAPER THAT DOES NOT CONTAIN A HANDWRITTEN SCORE IN YOUR CLASS RECORD BOOK HAS NOT BEEN CREDITED TO YOUR POINT COUNT!(This procedure is required to ensure that you have the graded assignment in your RECORD book, as per Class Notebook protocol.)


    LABEL AND COLOR ALL DIAGRAMS BEFORE SUBMISSION - ALL PAPERS/EXERCISES ARE ONLY EVALUATED ONCE. The last chance to turn in assignments or other work must be postmarked by May 6 or in the lab by May 14. All work will be returned the meeting before the final. To obtain a final you must turn-in your up-to-date notebook and record book, with tally sheet. You are not eligible to obtain a copy of the final until you have completed this requirement.

    • Quizzes and Exams



    Quizzes will cover all of the material since the previous quiz. The final will be cumulative and comprehensive.
    Note: Due to the nature of the course and time constraints there will be NO MAKE UP QUIZ! The lowest quiz score will be dropped. This allows you one missed quiz. Quizzes are available on the internet for a limited amount of time. Quizzes are timed, once you start a quiz, you must finish it within the allocated time (typically 1 hour). If you exit a quiz early, the grade you obtain will be recorded, you cannot reenter a quiz! If you take longer than allocated time, you will be cut off and receive a score of zero! This is how the program operates, no exceptions.
