Standard Format for Chemical Engineering Problems
An engineer's work should be neat, well organized, and easy to follow. You are expected to
follow this standard format for completing chemical engineering problems. Points may be
deducted for work that does not adhere to this format.
1. Use 8.5x11 paper for engineering problems.
2. The problem statement is needed before the solution; a drawing is usually required.
3. No credit will be given for final answers that do not show work involved.
4. Draw a box around your answers. Be sure to include units.
5. The top of each page should contain the following information from left to right:
Course & Section # | Assignment # | Your last name, 1st name | Page #/Total pages
6. Staple all pages of an assignment together in the upper left corner.

Final Exam: Wednesday March 18 2009

It is your responsibility to participate in your learning. Learning is not a spectator sport. It will take time
(minimum of 12 hours per week for this course), effort, work, and involvement. You should study on a
regular basis and not cram for tests, participate in class by being actively involved in dialogue with your
classmates and instructor, think about what you are learning, and apply what you have learned to solve
other related problems. Arriving late, leaving early, chatting with your neighbors, doing your other
homework, or having beepers and cellular phones turned on during class time are behaviors
unacceptable in this class. These behaviors are extremely disrespectful to your fellow students and your
professor. It is ultimately you who is responsible for you success in this class, not the instructor, not your
fellow students. Take that responsibility seriously.
To facilitate and reward attendance and participation, we will use an electronic student response
system from i>Clicker. You should already have purchased this at the bookstore, and registered
your “clicker” at the i>Clicker website (www.iclicker.com/register). We will be using the
clickers from the very first class, and you will only get participation credit if you have the clicker.
Using the “clickers”, conceptual questions will be asked periodically (in class) to assess your
understanding of course concepts both after lecture and after doing in-class activities. These
questions will take place in two steps. First each person will answer individually. Then you will
form small groups of 3-4 students to discuss your answers. Then you will answer again. For
both attempts you will be given credit simply for participating, to promote open interactions and
discussion in your groups.
I consider academic dishonesty, including cheating, plagiarism, and
fabrication, as defined in the University catalog (see also
http://www.dsa.csupomona.edu/judicialaffairs/academicintegrity.asp), to be a
serious offense and the maximum punishments allowed will be pursued in all
scenarios. This includes completing any homework assignments or using
clicker for another student. If nearly (or totally) identical works are
submitted by more than one student, all parties involved may receive the
maximum punishment allowed.
