REQUIRED TEXT & MATERIALS


Title: Physics Author: Paul E. Tippens Edition: 7th edition Publisher: McGraw-Hill ISBN: 0073222704 The textbook must be obtained before or during the first week of class. How to Order Textbook/Materials All books and materials, unless otherwise noted, should be purchased from the Ivy Tech online bookstore. To order the texts required for this class or any other course, go to http://www.ivytech.bkstr.com. Students can order all books and materials for all courses from this site regardless of whether it is an online or on-campus course. In the future, it is advised that students order textbooks and materials before the start of the semester. Students should use a copy of their course schedule to accurately order books and materials. Schedules can print a copy of their course schedule from Campus Connect at http://cc.ivytech.edu. Students who live in Indiana and surrounding states will normally receive their book order within one day from the time the book is shipped from the warehouse. Paying for overnight shipping on textbook orders from the bookstore is normally not a good use of money as it does not ensure overnight processing of the order it only ensures that once the book order has been processed, it will be shipped out overnight. Technology Needs & Resources Because this is a web-based course, it is expected that all students who enroll in the course have Internet access and a basic understanding of computer use (e.g., using e-mail, sending attachments via e-mail, using web browsers, using word processing software such as Microsoft Word). Also, it is expected that all students will regularly check their Ivy Tech e-mail accounts

(located in Campus Connect) and/or Blackboard messages as indicated below. Within 48 hours is recommended. This is the PRIMARY method that the college will utilize to contact students. Visit the Distance Learning Web site at: http://www.ivytech.edu/distance/ for more information related to technology requirements for online courses. Check with the nearest campus bookstore for educational pricing if additional software is required for this course.

COLLEGE POLICIES
Academic Honesty Statement The College is committed to academic integrity in all its practices. The faculty value intellectual integrity and a high standard of academic conduct. Activities that violate academic integrity undermine the quality and diminish the value of educational achievement. Cheating on papers, tests, or other academic works is a violation of College rules. No student shall engage in behavior that, in the judgment of the instructor of the class, may be construed as cheating. This may include, but is not limited to, plagiarism or other forms of academic dishonesty such as the acquisition without permission of tests or other academic materials and/or distribution of these materials and other academic work. This includes students who aid and abet as well as those who attempt such behavior. Anyone caught cheating and/or attempting to cheat in any way will automatically fail whatever they were caught cheating and/or attempting to cheat on, and administration will be notified and take further actions against the individual(s). Copyright Statement Students shall adhere to the laws governing the use of copyrighted materials. They must insure that their activities comply with fair use and in no way infringe on the copyright or other proprietary rights of others and that the materials used and developed at Ivy Tech Community College contain nothing unlawful, unethical, or libelous and do not constitute any violation of any right of privacy. ADA Statement Ivy Tech Community College seeks to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with documented disabilities. If students need an accommodation because of a documented disability, please contact the Office of Disability Support Services.

COURSE POLICIES & PROCEDURES


Due Dates & Deadlines The Syllabus and Course Calendar are 2 important tools to help students understand the course, student and instructor expectations, and deadlines. Both documents can be found under the Syllabus button in the course within Blackboard. Students are required to submit work on time for a chance to receive credit. Deadlines for each week/assignment are summarized on the course calendar. Students should check the calendar frequently for deadlines and to be aware of what to expect next. Deadlines are subject to change.

Students are responsible for timely assignment submission. Should a computer system or network go down, students must still turn in work in a timely manner. Dont wait until the last minute. Plan ahead by seeking alternative means for submitting work before needed. Local libraries and all Ivy Tech Community College campuses can serve as alternative resources. Contact the closest/most convenient campus or other public lab for schedules and Internet availability. Not having access to the required software on a home or work computer is not a legitimate excuse for turning in homework late. Attendance Policy Dont Get Dropped from Class! While it is important to be timely and on-schedule throughout any course, students need to be aware of an important college policy. Ivy Tech performs administrative drops for students who do not attend class early in the semester. Attendance in an online course is determined by whether a student has submitted work or not. Assignments may actually be due on another day (see course calendar), but students need to turn in something worth points before the NSW deadline in order to avoid being dropped for non-attendance. To avoid being dropped for non-attendance, students must submit both the Student Information Form and the Proctor Form assignments from the course calendar no later than 11:59 p.m. EST Monday, September 2, 2013. Am I Required to Come to a Campus for this Class? Yes, students are required to go to a convenient Ivy Tech campus or other acceptable testing site to take supervised (proctored) exams. See the section on Assignments & Grading for more information. Instructional Method This is an online distance-learning course. Each weeks assignments and readings are summarized on the Course Calendar, accessed from the Syllabus menu button in Blackboard. It takes a great deal of discipline, self-motivation and effective time management skills to successfully complete an online course. Many students find it helpful to set aside specific times each week to work on course assignments. Grades All grades will be maintained in Blackboards online grade book. Students are responsible to track their progress by referring to the online grade book. Make-Up Policy If a student has a SERIOUS problem that can be verified and that keeps the student from submitting a paper or test on time, please contact the professor immediately. The professor will determine if the seriousness of the problem warrants an exception to the late assignment rule. Late assignments will be assigned a grade of 0 unless a student has received prior approval from the Professor. There are No make-ups for discussion boards.

If students have known special events (vacation, wedding, birth of a child, surgery, etc.), students can work ahead on assignments with prior approval of the professor. In all cases, communication with the professor in advance is desired, whenever possible.

Last Day to Withdraw If a student wishes to withdraw from this course, students are responsible for completing an official withdrawal form with the registrar. The last day to withdraw from this course is November 9, 2013. Right of Revision The college reserves the right to change any statements, policies or scheduling as necessary. Students will be informed promptly of any and all changes.

COURSE COMMUNICATION
Instructor Commitment Ivy Tech Community College instructors are committed to responding to students within two business days. If a student sends communication, but does not receive a response, they should double-check that the correct communication method was used and that the correct location is being checked for a reply. Students can contact their local Distance Education Support with questions. NOTE: Messages are very different from Email. Students should carefully review the information below to ensure they are sending and receiving course communication properly. Both methods of communication listed below are acceptable. Please choose whichever method works best for you. Messages: all students can use the messages function of the course for course-related communications. Using messages, students can send and receive information from within the course. Messages can only be sent and received from within the course in Blackboard. Please check messages frequently. To access messages (send and receive): 1. Log into Blackboard & enter the course. 2. Click on Communication & Tools, then Messages. 3. There are two folders: Inbox and Sent. The Inbox folder will contain all received messages (so look there for messages from the instructor or other students). The Sent folder will contain sent. 4. At the top left corner, above the folders, is the button to start a Create Message. 5. After clicking on Create Message, clicking on the To button students can select the name of the person to write. Use the right-facing arrow to move the person into the recipient box.

6. Then, type a message and click on the Submit button when ready to send it. Email: all students can use the email function of the course for course-related communications. Students can send email from within the course in Blackboard, but will not receive responses inside the course. All emails are received in the Campus Connect email system. Students can also use the Campus Connect email system to send email. To access email from within the course: 1. Log into Blackboard & enter the course. 2. Click on Communication & Tools, then send email. 3. Please DO NOT use the MESSAGES feature inside Communication & Tools. 4. Select All Instructor Users to email the instructor. 5. To send an email to another member of the class, choose Select Users and choose the name(s) from the list. Use the right-facing arrow to move the person into the recipient box. To access Campus Connect, go to: http://cc.ivytech.edu. Online Communication Etiquette: Students are expected to uphold their responsibilities in terms of appropriate and professional communication with faculty and peers. Please review the Students Rights and Responsibilities section of the student handbook and review common netiquette (Internet etiquette) practices, like those found at: http://www.albion.com/netiquette/.

ASSIGNMENTS & GRADING


Course Exams Within the first week of the course you are to fill out and return the Proctor Form for Internet Classes, found in your eLearning course documents, to your instructor. You only need to fill out the information ONE TIME for the semester, unless you have to change your testing site for a specific reason. If you have to change your testing site for a specific reason please notify your instructor directly. Ivy Tech campuses are automatically considered AUTHORIZED TESTING SITES. A list of approved testing sites are found at http://www.ivytech.edu/distanceed/support/testing-sites/ If you are out of state or need to take your exam at another location, you MUST contact your instructor for site approval BEFORE submitting your information. Please check with your LOCAL TEST SITE for their procedures and hours of operation. SOME sites are walk-in while others, like SOUTH BEND, require an appointment be made in advance (either via email or phone). IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU TAKE THE EXAM(S) WITHIN THE HOURS OF THE TESTING SITE AND/OR TO MAKE APPOINTMENTS IF NECESSARY. Testing sites and/or proctors are not expected to know your exam deadlines. That is YOUR responsibility. They set up testing times based on your requests and are not responsible for checking deadlines.

A midterm and a final examination will be given. All examinations will have both a multiple choice section and a free response section. The entire exam is open book and open notes and will be taken online with a two hour time limit. The two exams will be proctored exams at your local Ivy Tech facility (or at some other agreed-upon location). It is the students responsibility to make an appointment with the distance learning coordinator at that facility to take these examinations within the specified time. During a proctored exam, the student shall not be permitted to have any electronic communications devices (for example, a cell phone or a pager) in his/her possession while the test is in progress and will not be allowed to access any files and/or internet sites besides the site of the exam. Bring paper copies of anything that you intend to use. Proctoring Information Proctored exams are supervised exams. Every Ivy Tech campus has a testing center where students can take proctored exams. It is the students responsibility to follow the proctoring procedures at a convenient campus, to arrange for the services of the qualified proctor provided by the campus, and to provide that information to the instructor of the course. If the proctoring center at that campus does not own and cannot provide the software or special tools required by the assessment, the student is responsible for locating a proctoring center with the required software/tools. As well, if a student does not live near or cannot conveniently get to an Ivy Tech campus, they should contact the instructor early in the semester to discuss options. A link to approved Ivy Tech exam sites may be found on the front page of Blackboard, under the Hot Links box. How is my grade calculated? The following breakdown will be used to calculate the students grades: Homework-20% Labs-20% Midterm Exam-30% Final Exam-30% For a student to pass this science course, he/she must pass both the lab and the lecture part of the course. Since 60% is a passing grade, a student fails the course unless he/she gets at least 60% on both the lab and lecture parts of the course. So for example, if he/she gets 90% on the lecture part, but gets 50% on the labs (or vice versa), he/she fails the course. If the student passes both parts, then the grade will be calculated using the 30% midterm exam, 30% final exam, 20% labs, and 20% homework. Grading Scale: A 90.0% - 100% B 80.0% - 89.9% C 70.0% - 79.9% D 60.0% - 69.9% F < 60.0%

ADDITIONAL SUPPORT
Optional Campus Support Students are welcome to use the services and equipment available at the most convenient Ivy Tech Campus. Services include academic advising, equipment, libraries, and tutoring. Please locate the most convenient Ivy Tech campus by reviewing the information at http://ivytech.edu/campuses/. Library The Ivy Tech Library is available to students on- and off-campus, offering full text journals, books, and other resources essential for course assignments. The Library can be accessed from the Library tab in Blackboard or from the Library tab in Campus Connect. Click for Help Log into Blackboard at http://online.ivytech.edu and visit the Click for Help tab for information about computer downloads. This tab provides students with important computer information, including security software, viewer software for users without Microsoft products, adobe reader, flash player, java, and more. Disabilities Services Students with questions or needs for disabilities support services should contact their local Disabilities Support Services director/coordinator. In the future, it is recommended that students contact Disabilities Support Services at least 30 days before the start of the semester. The contact information listed here is for the disabilities support director/coordinator at the instructors local campus. For information about disabilities support services at another campus, please visit: http://ivytech.edu/dss/ or Campus Connect (http://cc.ivytech.edu). Disabilities Support Contact: First Name: Sandra Last Name: Bens Email (Ivy Tech Email): sbens@ivytech.edu Additional Information Warning about Auto-Forwarding Email: Students who auto-forward their Ivy Tech email accounts to a personal email account, may not receive communication that is sent within Blackboard. It is recommended that you not auto-forward. If a student misses communication for this reason, it is the responsibility of the student. Supplemental Materials: Class Notes (PowerPoint documents available in Blackboard), labs (available online), Scientific Calculator, Ruler, Protractor, Graph Paper. All students must have access to a computer (a decent one). The student must also have access to the Internet. Instructions for obtaining free readers for Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint are available in Blackboard.

General:

Each week during the semester while school is in session corresponds to a Class Session. Each Class Session will consist of a packet of assignments that are presented in the Course Calendar document. The student shall be responsible for reading the assigned text chapter(s), for executing the current PowerPoint slides, for reading the contents of any supplementary notes, for completing the assigned laboratory exercise, and for completing all homework assignments. All work is to be handed in on time-no late assignments will be accepted. Refer to the Schedule on the Course Assignments document. Feel free to hand in any assignments early. (Summer students have more than one class session per week.)

Assignments: To complete a homework assignment or lab, you will need to click on the assignment link (underlined in the Class Session folder) and attach your work in a file form. If you have typed out the assignment, please be sure that your files are compatible with Microsoft WORD. If you have handwritten the assignment, please scan the assignment and submit a copy. As long as you show your work, either one of these two methods is acceptable-select whichever method you are more comfortable with. You may send all work pages as one file, or you may send each work page separately. Do not hit the submit button until you have attached all files and entered all comments. No late assignments will be accepted in this course, so please be mindful of these due dates. After you have submitted an assignment for grading, if you click on the My Grades tab you will see an exclamation point ( ! ) in the spot in the gradebook for that assignment. The exclamation point will remain until the assignment has been graded. At that time, you will see a score in place of the exclamation point. You may click on this score in order to see any instructor comments. If the assignment has not been submitted yet, there will be a dash ( - ) in the column in the gradebook. It is the students responsibility to check and be sure that their assignments have been submitted by checking for the exclamation point after submittal. Homework: The student learns physical science principals through practice. Completing assignments is YOUR responsibility if you do not do them, it is unlikely that you will pass this course. Homework will consist of homework problems and/or questions from each chapter covered by the lecture notes for that week. Each assignment will be graded each week as acceptable (2 points), deficient (1 point), or missing / not acceptable (0 points). Homework assignments may be a collaborative effort among two or more students. However, each student is required to submit his/her own work. This means that each student will write up his/her own analyses. Simply copying anothers work will be considered cheating. All homework problems are found in the exercises section of the end of each chapter. Homework can be completed by hand and then a scanned copy can be attached to the assignment OR homework can be typed out in a word processing program (compatible with Microsoft Word) and then that typed document can be attached to the assignment. Either method is considered acceptable. Lab assignments will be assigned to the student each week. These lab

Laboratory Work:

assignments will generally consist of an Internet simulated laboratory assignment concerning the topic for that week. A lab report shall be submitted which details all of the tasks that were assigned. Like the homework, lab assignments can be a collaborative effort but each student is required to submit his/her own work. Homework Grading (2 point scale): 2 points 1 point all completed and all work missing problem(s) or not shown and handed in on all work shown and handed time in on time 0 points not handed in or no work shown (answers only)

Lab Grading (5 point scale): Please refer to lab grading rubric document. This outlines where points are earned on all labs totaling up to five points. Extra Credit: None. Your grade is determined entirely on the basis of the work outlined above. There is neither extra credit you can do, nor are there points awarded for phone calls, Discussion Board participation, sucking up, etc. Final overall grades will not be rounded AT ALL.

The Ivy Tech Community College Learning Environment: The primary purpose of the college classroom is to provide a safe and positive learning environment. Students and faculty are partners in establishing the classroom environment. The instructor will respect all students and ensure that students have the tools, information, instruction and safe environment necessary to learning. Likewise, it is each students responsibility to help the instructor create this environment by being respectful of the instructor and his/her classmates, by avoiding side conversations, by refraining from other behaviors that would likely cause disruption or distraction to the class, and by notifying the instructor of any concern or question about the operation of the class. If a student is disruptive, faculty is required, for the benefit of the entire class, to take action according to College policy.
