Syllabus This unit is designed for students who have passed CHEM1000 Principles and Processes in Chemistry or CHEM1001 Biological Chemistry. This unit will prepare you for a wide array of future careers by illustrating how an understanding of reactivity and function assists understanding biological, medicinal, geological and industrial processes. It will provide you with the skills to predict reactions of common functional groups by demonstrating how the mechanistic process gives the outcomes of new, but related reactions, including reactions of relevance to your chosen discipline. Chemical reactions occur over a very wide range of timescales and the ability to measure and predict the rates of reaction, particularly as they are influenced by a number of factors, will display how this has direct influence on your everyday life. Finally, dynamic systems in biology, medicine, industry and nature will illustrate the importance of chemical equilibria.

Introduction This unit utilises an integrated collaborative workshop and laboratory with accompanying online resources to help students develop the following concepts in four modules: 1. Dynamic equilibria 2. Hydrocarbons & addition reactions 3. Kinetics 4. Substitution reactions

Unit Learning Outcomes All graduates of Curtin University achieve a set of nine graduate attributes during their course of study. These tell an employer that, through your studies, you have acquired discipline knowledge and a range of other skills and attributes which employers say would be useful in a professional setting. Each unit in your course addresses the graduate attributes through a clearly identified set of learning outcomes. They form a vital part in the process referred to as assurance of learning. The learning outcomes tell you what you are expected to know, understand or be able to do in order to be successful in this unit. Each assessment for this unit is carefully designed to test your achievement of one or more of the unit learning outcomes. On successfully completing all of the assessments you will have achieved all of these learning outcomes.

Your course has been designed so that on graduating we can say you will have achieved all of Curtin's Graduate Attributes through the assurance of learning process in each unit.

On successful completion of this unit students can:Graduate Attributes addressed

1 Analyse experimental data to ascertain the order of a reaction and predict how varying parameters, such as temperature, catalysts and enzymes will influence the rate of reaction

2 Interpret the dynamic equilibria of chemical systems using conventional techniques to assess the extent of their reactivity

3 Apply the principles of reactivity to describe the reactions of common functional groups and predict the products of reactions involving molecules with one or more functional group

4 Illustrate the mechanistic pathways of the key reactions (addition, substitution and elimination) of functional groups and predict the products of such reactions

5 Use appropriate record keeping practices for presentation of data when undertaking laboratory work





Curtin's Graduate Attributes

Learning Activities Workshop The workshop is our main weekly activity that aims to develop your understanding of the key concept by using activities, clicker questions and small group work in an environment that encourages engaging debate, discourse and class presentation. Before you come to the workshop preparation is required, including viewing online lectures, reading sections of the textbook, and printing the activity for the week. When you come to class you will be allocated to groups and provided information on the scope and purpose of the activity. You may wish to bring your textbook, a laptop, and your calculator. You are expected to participate in a workshop every week.

Laboratory The laboratory develops important skills in practical chemistry, good teamwork and communication. This environment allows exploration of experimental methods, which are common to and underpin many areas of science and engineering. You will be set a weekly experiment that builds to culminate in the major assessment tasks. You are expected to participate in all experimental tasks. Before you come to the laboratory, you will need to complete the pre-laboratory activity associated with the experiment for that week. This is essential and contributes to your mark as part of the logbook component of assessment. If you have not completed the pre-laboratory activity, you will not be allowed to enter the laboratory and begin the experiment. You will also be issued with a logbook which cannot be taken out of the laboratory. It should be submitted to your demonstrator after each laboratory session.

Lecture The lecture will focus on reinforcing your understanding of important concepts through expert presentation of information. This includes summarising the main outcomes from the workshop, forecasting the workshop for the following week, and giving more in-depth information of the topic of the week. The lecture will be closely integrated with workshop and laboratory to ensure maximal benefit. You are expected to attend every lecture.

How does this work? The three activities each week are carefully prepared and timed with you in mind. Your success depends on how effectively you utilise each of the learning opportunities. You are expected to attend every activity, and if you don't then you may jeopardise your performance in later activities and your assessment.

There is an expectation that this unit requires a time commitment of 150 hours over the whole semester (including tuition free periods, study week and university exam period). This equates to roughly 10 hours each week of the semester, comprising timetabled contact (lectures, workshops, laboratory sessions), assessment (class tests and exams) and private study (preparation, reflection and completion of assignments/reports). We strongly recommend that you maximise your potential for success by scheduling ample time for preparation and reflection before and after each activity. Please ensure that you bring your Student ID card with you when you attend laboratory sessions. You will not be allowed to enter without the ID card. Alternative modes of identification (drivers licence, Transperth smart card etc.) will NOT be accepted.

Apply discipline knowledge Thinking skills (use analytical skills to solve problems)

Information skills (confidence to investigate new ideas)

Communication skills Technology skillsLearning how to learn (apply principles learnt to new situations) (confidence to tackle unfamiliar problems)

International perspective (value the perspectives of others)

Cultural understanding (value the perspectives of others)

Professional Skills (work independently and as a team) (plan own work)

Assessment Assessment schedule

Detailed information on assessment tasks

1. Poster presentation: a poster and short talk on an experiment, or series of experiments, undertaken during the laboratory learning environment will be presented by pairs of students. Guidelines for preparing your poster and an assessment rubric will be provided on Blackboard. The data for the poster can only be collected in your scheduled laboratory class. Students who do not participate in these classes will be ineligible to submit this assessment item.

2. Workshop portfolio: a portfolio of work chosen to best represent development of key concepts from the workshop learning environment.

l Mid-semester test (50 % of portfolio mark). The mid-semeter test will cover material presented in lectures, workshops and laboratories, and will be in a similar style to the final examination. It will be held in your schedule workshop in the week beginning 25 April. The mid-semester test can only be completed during your scheduled workshop. More information will be provided on Blackboard.

l Weekly assessments related to workshop learning tasks (50 % of portfolio mark). The learning tasks accompanying the assessment item will be posted on a weekly basis to Blackboard. The assessment task can only be submitted during your scheduled workshop. The final portfolio and its accompanying mark will be chosen from the best 10 pieces of work.

3. Laboratory journal: a laboratory logbook is a record of your results, observations, calculations, discussions, etc for CHEM1002. It is used to demonstrate your understanding of one or more of the learning outcomes. Pre-laboratory activities must be included (stapled) in your logbook for each experiement. Your logbook cannot be removed from the laboratory and will be marked four times during the semester - once to provide feedback with no marks given (week beginning 7 March) and three times with marks given (weeks beginning 21 March, 25 April, 23 May). This assessment task can only be submitted during the scheduled laboratory class.

4. Final Examination: a final examination that illustrates a broad understanding of the key concepts associated with the learning outcomes.

Pass requirements

In addition to gaining at least 50% of the total marks, to gain a pass in this unit you must meet the following requirements:

1. Satisfactorily complete the three parts of the final examination to demonstrate competency of the three unit learning outcomes assessed, ((i.e. score at least 40% in each section)) and

2. Gain at least 50% of the marks for the laboratory journal.

Fair assessment through moderation

Moderation describes a quality assurance process to ensure that assessments are appropriate to the learning outcomes, and that student work is evaluated consistently by assessors. Minimum standards for the moderation of assessment are described in the Assessment and Student Progression Manual, available from policies.curtin.edu.au/policies/teachingandlearning.cfm

Late assessment policy

This ensures that the requirements for submission of assignments and other work to be assessed are fair, transparent, equitable, and that penalties are consistently applied.

1. All assessments students are required to submit will have a due date and time specified on this Unit Outline. 2. Students will be penalised by a deduction of ten percent per calendar day for a late assessment submission

(eg a mark equivalent to 10% of the total allocated for the assessment will be deducted from the marked value for every day that the assessment is late). This means that an assessment worth 20 marks will have two marks deducted per calendar day late. Hence if it was handed in three calendar days late and given a mark of 16/20, the student would receive 10/20. An assessment more than seven calendar days overdue will not be marked and will receive a mark of 0.

Assessment extension

A student unable to complete an assessment task by/on the original published date/time (eg examinations, tests) or due date/time (eg assignments) must apply for an assessment extension using the Assessment Extension form (available from the Forms page at students.curtin.edu.au/administration/) as prescribed by the Academic Registrar. It is the responsibility of the student to demonstrate and provide evidence for exceptional circumstances beyond the student's control that prevent them from completing/submitting the assessment task.

The student will be expected to lodge the form and supporting documentation with the unit coordinator before the assessment date/time or due date/time. An application may be accepted up to five working days after the date or due date of the assessment task where the student is able to provide an acceptable explanation as to why he or she was not able to submit the application prior to the assessment date. An application for an assessment extension will not be accepted after the date of the Board of Examiners' meeting.

Deferred assessments

If your results show that you have been granted a deferred assessment you should immediately check your OASIS email for details.

Deferred examinations/tests will be held from 18/07/2016 to 22/07/2016 . Notification to students will be made after the Board of Examiners’ meeting via the Official Communications Channel (OCC) in OASIS.

Supplementary assessments

Supplementary assessments, if granted by the Board of Examiners, will have a due date or be held between 18/07/2016 and 22/07/2016 . Notification to students will be made after the Board of Examiners’ meeting via the Official Communications Channel (OCC) in OASIS.

It is the responsibility of students to be available to complete the requirements of a supplementary assessment. If

Academic Integrity (including plagiarism and cheating) Any conduct by a student that is dishonest or unfair in connection with any academic work is considered to be academic misconduct. Plagiarism and cheating are serious offences that will be investigated and may result in penalties such as reduced or zero grades, annulled units or even termination from the course.

Plagiarism occurs when work or property of another person is presented as one's own, without appropriate acknowledgement or referencing. Submitting work which has been produced by someone else (e.g. allowing or contracting another person to do the work for which you claim authorship) is also plagiarism. Submitted work is subjected to a plagiarism detection process, which may include the use of text matching systems or interviews with students to determine authorship.

Cheating includes (but is not limited to) asking or paying someone to complete an assessment task for you or any use of unauthorised materials or assistance during an examination or test.

From Semester 1, 2016, all incoming coursework students are required to complete Curtin’s Academic Integrity Program (AIP). If a student does not pass the program by the end of their first study period of enrolment at Curtin, their marks will be withheld until they pass. More information about the AIP can be found at: https://academicintegrity.curtin.edu.au/students/AIP.cfm

Refer to the Academic Integrity tab in Blackboard or academicintegrity.curtin.edu.au for more information, including student guidelines for avoiding plagiarism.

Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Expectations Curtin students are expected to have reliable internet access in order to connect to OASIS email and learning systems such as Blackboard and Library Services.

You may also require a computer or mobile device for preparing and submitting your work.

Additional information Communication is the key to success in this unit. Effective communication is two-directional, and should be understood by all parties. When we communicate with you, we'll use Blackboard announcements which are automatically emailed to your @student.curtin.edu.au email account. If you're not using this account or you don't read the emails you must check the announcement page on Blackboard regularly. When you communicate with us we ask that you direct emails to one person at a time, as multiple emails to multiple people can delay or confuse your query. If you're not sure, send your email to [email protected] and your response will be forwarded to the appropriate person for action. When writing or speaking to us you should apply the SMART principles for professional communication.

Responses to communication that is unprofessional or incomplete will be delayed. Sometimes, if your query has broader impact your response will include a Blackboard announcement to all students. Remember, that we appreciate feedback in exactly the same way that you appreciate feedback.

Supplementary and Deferred Exams Deferred examinations will be held at a date to be advised ((see next section)). Supplementary examinations, where applicable and when granted by the Board of Examiners, will be held at a date to be advised ((see previous section)). Notification to students will be made after the Board of Examiners meeting via the Official Communications Channel ((OCC)) in OASIS.

It is the responsibility of students to be available to attend a supplementary or deferred examination on the date advised and to check their OASIS account on a weekly basis for official Curtin correspondence. If your results show that you have been granted a supplementary or deferred examination you should immediately check your OASIS email for details. Supplementary and deferred examinations granted by the appropriate Board of Examiners will be held in the week beginning 18 July 2016 at the Bentley campus. Arrangements for supplementary or deferred examinations to suit individual students will not be made and further supplementary or deferred assessments may not be available.

S Significant: is what you're asking significant and have you made this known to us, ie why is this important? This will help us determine if your request is urgent and requires immediate action, or less urgent to be dealt with later.

M Meaningful: are all of the details provided in a meaningful way, e.g your full name, student ID and unit of study are provided along with your query? We need this information so we can come back to you once with an outcome.

A Actionable: who do you want a response from and why? If you target your response to key people, know the person's name and use it, you're more likely to receive a faster response.

R Respectful: use language that you'd be comfortable receiving and provide pleasantries. Sign off your email with your name you prefer to be called. The response you receive will then be personal. Remember, humans read and respond to your emails!

T Timely: ensure you send queries well in advance of needing a response and await your response patiently. We aim to reply by the end of the next business day for urgent requests, and within five working days for non‐

urgent requests.
