Grading | |
|
Grade Computation |
Laboratory accounts for 25 % of the course
grade. A minimum grade of 55
% in lab is required in order to pass the course. The lab grade will be apportioned as
follows: |
|
|
Experiments = 35 %
To
obtain credit for the scheduled experiments, the student will attend the
designated lab period, perform the exercise and submit a report through
the appropriate dropbox in iLearn. Products = 15 %
In
experiments where a product is generated, the product sample will be
turned in and evaulated with respect to yield
and purity. Notebook = 20%
The
notebook is required at every lab session and must be kept current for
minimum credit. Pre-lab
duplicate copies must be turned in at the beginning of each
experiment for 2/5 of this credit. Duplicate copies of daily
laboratory records must be turned in at the end of each lab period
for another 2/5 credit.
Notebooks will be subject to unannounced examination and evaluation
at any time during the semester, for the remaining 1/5
credit. Lab tests = 30
% Three to four quizzes
covering both practical and theoretical topics from the scheduled
experiments will be given.
Relevant material from class lecture may also be included. Occasional “pop” quizzes may also
be included for a portion of this
grade. |
