• ACA#4 is now available on your Personal Page. You may need your textbook for the ACA.
  
  
  
  
• Remember Connect and LearnSmart Chapter(s) are due by 11:59 pm on Thursday, January 20, 2011. The Review Problem Set and PS#1 answers (on the Help! link on your Problem Set Page) are due by 12:00 pm on Friday, January 21, 2011. I recommend not waiting to the last minute to complete these assignments. Since Connect and LearnSmart are new, it is very possible that the software will go down at random moments. So just a reminder.
  
  
  
  
• Next week's laboratory is available on your Assignment Page that you can access from your Personal Page.
  
  
  
  
  
• If you missed your schedule laboratory section this week you will be able to view the Safety video (and check-in if necessary) on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (Jan. 19, 20 and 21) at 8:30 in the mornings and 12:30 pm in the afternoons.
  
  
  
  
• For Connect and LearnSmart you need to use FireFox if you are a PC.
  
  
  
  
• Clicker Information is here. If you register online, much less expensive.
  
  
  
  
• Grades from Problem Sets: I will use the responses that are submitted on the HELP! link on the Problem Set page to score 6 points on each Problem Set (RPS, PS#1, PS#2...). I will score 3 points from the LearnSmart based on completion (the more you do the more points, up to 3, you earn). I will score 3 points from Connect, again the more you do the more points, up to 3, you can earn. For the RPS and PS#1 for Connect points will be earned based primarily on completion.
  
  
  
  
  
• 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.
