Tentative Exam Schedule Exam 1 09/25/2010 Exam 2 10/30/2010 Final Exam 12/13/2010 Basis of Grading Weekly Homework 15% Two Midterm Exams 50% (25% Each) Closed book and closed notes. Comprehensive Final Exam 35% Closed book and closed notes. Academic Honesty and Impact on Grading: Cheating on HW or Exams will earn you an F for the course. Here are a few examples of cheating: Accessing materials that are designated for the instructor (such as the solution manual). Searching the internet for answers to HW problems. Plagiarizing from a another student. Letting another student plagiarize your work. Plagiarizing from Wikipedia or other online reference. Changing answers on an Exam or HW assignment after it has been graded, and then claiming instructor error. The UH Student Handbook (http://www.uh.edu/dos/hdbk/acad/achonpol.html) has more information. Selected excerpts from the UH Academic Honesty Policy are also available on the Blackboard site for this course. 1 All students must submit their own work. 2 Homework problems will have a due date, and will be collected on that date during class. No credit for late homework assignments. If you cannot attend class, then scan and e-mail your work to Dr. Stein prior to class. 3 Solutions will be posted on the bulletin board outside the ChE office within 4 days after the due date. 4 Homework problems will be graded and returned within two weeks. All homework problems must be submitted in the following style for full credit:
1 All work must be legible. If your work is not legible, then it will not be graded. 2 Work may be handwritten or typed. 3 Single-sided pages only, with one problem per page. 4 Put your name and the HW problem number on the top-right corner of every page. 5 Show every line of calculations, and include units where appropriate. 6 Circle or box numerical answers. Lecture Guidelines and Attendance Attendance at lectures is optional. There are no pop quizzes in this class. If you decide to attend lectures, then you must be respectful of the instructor, TAs, and other students in the class. This means no conversations during class, keep your phone on silent, etc. If you are late, then please enter quietly and sit at the back. Do not disrupt the class. Exam Guidelines and Attendance Exams will be based on homework and lecture content. No calculators with graphing capabilities or other programmable memory storage. A list of approved calculator types will be posted on Blackboard. The last class before the final will be review. There will be no make-up exams without a documented, serious cause. Exams will be graded and returned within two weeks. Appendix ABET Outcome, Criterion 3 (a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering.
