CHEM 1201 Sec. 05   
Fall 2007

Homework Assignments
and
Suggested Problems

  All Suggested Problems come from the textbook for this course, LSU customized edition of Chemistry, The Central Science, 10th ed., Brown, LeMay, Bursten, and Murphy, Pearson Custom Publishing, 2006.

SUGGESTED PROBLEMS will NOT be collected or graded. These problems are usually similar to your homework problems and assigned to help you work the homework problems and to study for the exams. Generally the answers to the Suggested Problems (Red numbered problems) can be found in the back of the textbook.

  HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS will be viewed and turned in using an internet web site called WebAssign. This homework system has the advantage that it is graded immediately upon submission, showing you which problems are correct and which are incorrect. You have the opportunity to rework the problems you got incorrect and resubmit your answers. Only the last submission grade will be recorded.  You can submit problems individually (some early and some later).  There is a deadline and a maximum number of submissions possible per problem.

HINTS:  Minimize the time on a computer by printing out the homework assignment when first assigned.  Each student will have a slightly different set of problems, so print your assignment.

After we complete a lecture, work the problems that correlate to the lecture material covered so far.  Log in and submit your answers to each question individually.  You can also save your work on-line and submit later.

Don’t wait until the last minute to work the problems or submit all your answers!

After the due date & time, you can log back in and see the correct answers.  This is helpful in studying for exams.

Seek help from Dr. Allen, tutors in the Biology/Chemistry Tutor Room, or even your friends.

If you need or want additional problems, see the Suggested Problems assigned below.

HOW TO USE WebAssign:  www.webassign.net/student.html

1.   AFTER I have uploaded the roster to WebAssign, you can log onto WebAssign.

2.   You have a grace period for about 2 weeks to use the website.  After that time period, you must enter an access code.   You can purchase the access code at the WebAssign internet site or you may purchase the access code at the bookstores.
If another class also uses WebAssign, you have to purchase a separate access code for each course.

3.   Each assignment lists the due date & time and maximum number of submissions allowed.  At the exact deadline, WebAssign closes and will not accept anymore answer, even if you are still entering answers or had answers saved, but not submitted.

4.   Generally, I do NOT give deadline extensions unless you have an excused absence.
