THE
REQUIRED TEXTBOOK Chemical
Principles, Enhanced Edition, 6th Edition By Steven S. Zumdahl |
Academic Honesty: Detailed information
on Pomona College's policy on academic honesty is presented in your “Critical
Inquiry” course (ID 1); obviously you are expected to follow the policy in
Chemistry 1a. An especially important
academic honesty standard for Chemistry 1a is the one concerned with laboratory
work - "In laboratory or research projects involving the collection of
data, students accurately report data observed and do not alter these data for
any reason." One purpose of college
laboratory courses is to develop the proper ethical conduct in scientific
work. Unethical professional practices
and research fraud have ruined the careers of practicing scientists. Hence, one purpose of having you turn in a
copy of your laboratory data each day when you leave the laboratory is to help
remove the temptation of altering your data when preparing your final report.
All of your work on examinations and in
laboratory reports must be your own. You
are encouraged to work together on homework, laboratories, and in study of
course material. However, any work that
you turn in for a grade must be your own.
Working together on homework is a good idea, but you should not simply
copy another student’s work. Academic dishonesty cases will be reported to the
Dean of Students office in accordance with college policy.
