For those students who still have their original cards from the Honors Thesis survey, there will be a second opportunity to participate in the 10-minute survey and win a gift card to Eskimo Joes. As a reminder, the survey is entitled "Learning style trends of undergraduate pre-health students," and the investigator is James Harlan (james.harlan@okstate.edu). Each card should have a 4-digit number which will be used to take the survey. For every 30 students who participate, one $20 gift card will be offered. Winning numbers will be posted on the survey website on February 9th.

Grades are posted. The class average for Exam I is 66. Two students received a score of 97. These two students will receive some swag in class on Thursday, and get to be taped to share with their family...cool. Awesome performance on our first CHEM 1515 exam. Here is the class distribution.

  • The first thing you need to do to access materials for this class is to complete the Secret Identification (SID) form. Click on the SID#/Name link in the left frame and complete the form. You will receive an e-mail from Dr. G. indicating your SID has been accepted. Once you have entered an SID, fill out the additional form for some extra credit, and then you can go to your Personal page. On your Personal Page check out the Assignment Page (what is happening in class), and get your personal Review Problem Set. If you want to see a video covering the CHEM 1515 Web site than checkout the video podcast. Click on the Podcast link in the left frame to learn how to subscribe to the CHEM 1515 podcasts for this semester.


  • Remember laboratory does meet this week. Students will view the Safety Video and take the Safety Quiz. You will need your textbook and calculator in laboratory this week.


  • Be sure to bring your copy of the During Class Inventions and Computer Lab Activities Workbook to lecture and laboratory class. By mistake (through Monday, January 7, 2008) the Bookstore placed the Volume II DCI Workbook with CHEM 1314. The Volume II (it is green) DCI and Computer Lab Activities goes with CHEM 1515.
