BI 101

BI101, 102 & 103 These are for non- science majors. – Meet transfer and program requirements for a science with lab. – Some nursing programs require BI102. Science majors (Biology, Zoology, Botany, Wildlife Management, etc.), Pre- med (planning on med school) and Pre- Pharmacy should be in BI211, 212, 213.

Syllabus Jessica Friel Phone: Website:

Required Materials Access to the Internet – At school or at home, but you must have it! BI101 Lab Packet – Make sure you have it before class on Wednesday this week. Bring the entire packet to class every day. – It includes Pre-labs which will be graded and must be completed before you come to lab. Text: Discover Biology, by Singh-Cundy et. al., 6 th ed. – Will be used for all three terms this school year. Buy the E-book:

Book Website Here you can find all sorts of study tools (not available for 5 th edition)

What you will be learning about… Use a dichotomous key Identify local flora in a field setting Diagram their evolutionary relationships. Impact of human activity on sustaining biodiversity. Human and non-human populations. Ecological principles Relate characteristics and species composition of communities, ecoregions and biomes Diagram and explain the movement of energy and matter in ecosystems. Show impacts human activities have on populations, communities, ecosystems and the biosphere. Gather information on organizations that provide opportunities for volunteer environmental activities and describe their participation as a volunteer.

Evaluation Your grade will be determined by your overall performance on a series of assessments including laboratory work, class activities, exams, reports, projects, and presentations. These assessments will evaluate your mastery of course content but also your ability to use the scientific method of inquiry and critical thinking skills.

Grading The grading scale is a standard, firm scale as follows To see your current grade me from my.chemeketa and ask to see your grade report. I will reply within 1 business day with your current scores. Assignment/ActivityPointsWhere to find?Late pass used?

Course Assignments A variety of assignments will be given throughout the course including homework, quizzes, and other projects related to the course. Quizzes may be announced or unannounced.

Exams Exams consist of multiple-choice, short answer and essay questions based on lecture and reading material. The exams are not cumulative with the exception of certain concepts that will be emphasized throughout the course (e.g., the scientific method).

Attendance Attendance is expected, although points are not allotted for attendance. Repeated absences are very likely to significantly affect your grade as well as your learning. You are responsible for all material, announcements, and assignments provided in class whether you are present or not.

Punctuality Punctuality is crucial. Late assignments are generally not accepted with the exception of certain circumstances (e.g., illness, emergency) or a late pass. Assignments are due at the beginning of the specified class session (unless otherwise noted) and are considered late thereafter. You will be given one late pass per term, you cannot use other’s passes.

Academic Integrity ACADEMIC HONESTY STATEMENT: dyskills/writing/resources/academichonesty/ dyskills/writing/resources/academichonesty/ Learning is built on the fundamental qualities of honesty, fairness, respect and trust. At Chemeketa Community College, academic integrity is a shared endeavor characterized by truth, personal responsibility and high academic standards. Any violation of academic integrity devalues the individual and the community as a whole.

Academic Integrity Examples of Plagiarism: Word-for-word copying of work written by someone else. Failure to give proper credit for ideas, statements of facts, or conclusions derived by another. Failure to use quotation marks when quoting directly from another, whether a paragraph, sentence, or phrase. Close and extended paraphrasing of another work without acknowledging the source.

Academic Integrity Examples of Cheating Copying another’s work on a test, paper, or project. Using unauthorized materials in an exam or collaborating on work to be turned in for credit where the instructor disallows such collaboration. Taking an exam for another student, purposely allowing another student to copy during a test, or providing coursework for another student to turn in as his or her own effort. Fabricating, falsifying or misrepresenting data or results from experiments, interviews or surveys. Submitting the same work in more than one class for credit without permission from the instructor.

Read Through Expectations Student Services

Labs Based on exercises in the lab packet. Students will work in groups in lab and cooperation is expected. Lab exercises will consist of observation and / or experimental work. Critical thinking skills will be essential and participation in lab activities is mandatory. Preparation for lab includes reading the lab packet and bringing necessary materials (e.g. textbook, lab packet, etc).

Lab Assignments Lab packet: This is the lab itself that can be found in the lab notebook. As you do the lab you will fill these out and answer the questions. Course project: is a chance for you to explore volunteer opportunities in environmental science. A detailed description of the course project will be provided in class.

Cascade Field Trip This required trip will last 13 hours. Our trip is Oct 10 th from 7am – 8pm Transportation is provided
