LABORATORY POLICIES FOR CHEMISTRY 106 AND 108INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY

Laboratory AttendanceStudentsareresponsibleto attendall laboratorysessions. Eachlaboratoryreportandverificationofcompletionofthe laboratoryactivityconstitutes100points.

Laboratory GradesLaboratoryinstrt1ctors(T~hi~g Assistants~TAs)willassigngradesbasedonthe followingpointvalues.

There is no opportunity to "make up" a laboratory session or a quiz. Failure to attend two or morelaboratory sessions means an "F' in the course, regardless of the number of points the student has. It isimportant that all students arrive on time, since the pre-lab quiz is given promptly, and the procedures forthe day are discussed. Students who are late may not enter the lab and will be absent for that day. Muchof the laboratory grade is associated with productive teamwork in your group so that the TAs will belooking for this type of collaboration. It is, therefore, very important that each student be prepared foreach session.

Grades are determined as a percentage: 900/0-100%is A; 80%-89% is B; 700/0-79%is C; 60%-69% is D.

Laboratory Conduct and BehaviorYour laboratory manual outlines the general procedures for working in the laboratory on pages 1 and 2. Itis your responsibility to read and understand these. Rilles for laboratory behavior are also posted in eachlaboratory. For the safety of all, students must abide by these rilles and any student not doing so will beasked to leave the laboratory, receiving a zero for the day's laboratory work.

The Laboratory InstructorThe laboratory'instructor, also known as the TA or Teaching Assistant, is the instructor responsible forteaching of the laboratory session. It is the role of each student to know and adhere to the policies fortheir section, to be prepared and to submit their work as required by the laboratory instructor.

Any questions may be directed to Dr. Borgford, Assistant Professor and Laboratory Coordinator forChemistry 106 and 108.
