Note: 1. There are textbook reading assignments for both lectures and laboratories. You will be tested on all textbook readings. For some laboratories there will be a write-up handed out in addition.
2. Read the assigned pages in Abramoff and Thomson and/ or Bohensky each week before coming to the laboratory. At the Instructors discretion a quiz may be given in each or any laboratory. Bring the laboratory manuals to laboratory every week.
3. A dissection kit containing a blunt (or mall) probe will be provided for use during the laboratory sessions. A partner, the Bohensky manual and a dissection partner are required for laboratory beginning week 5 (five).

Use of Technology: Mastering Biology, which you are required to have with your textbook, has on-line additional information for each chapter, study aids, study questions, and animations. Your Professor may also require some of the on-line quizzes or examinations. Other Resources: A useful website for many topics covered in this course: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ultranet/BiologyPages? The Science Department Learning Center (N734, schedule posted on the door) also has useful computer programs and tutors who are available without an appointment (drop in).
Evaluation & Requirements of Students The instructor will administer 4 or 5 examinations. One or more assessment examinations (not counted in student grades) may also be administered. Some laboratories will begin with a pre-lab quiz. Laboratory quizzes/ examinations may also be given. A final examination will cover both lecture and laboratory material. Students will be required to submit reports for some laboratory experiments. Papers on various topics may be assigned at the instructors discretion.

College Attendance Policy At BMCC, the maximum number of absences is limited to one more hour than the number of hours a class meets in one week. For example, you may be enrolled in a three-hour class. In that class, you would be allowed 4 hours of absence (not 4 days). In the case of excessive absences, the instructor has the option to lower the grade or assign an F or WU grade.
Academic Adjustments for Students with Disabilities Students with disabilities who require reasonable accommodations or academic adjustments for this course must contact the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities and notify the instructor at the first meeting of the class. BMCC is committed to providing equal access to all programs and curricula to all students.
BMCC Policy on Plagiarism and Academic Integrity Statement Plagiarism is the presentation of someone elses ideas, words or artistic, scientific, or technical work as ones own creation. Using the idea or work of another is permissible only when the original author is identified. Paraphrasing and summarizing, as well as direct quotations require citations to the original source. Plagiarism may be intentional or unintentional. Lack of dishonest intent does not necessarily absolve a student of responsibility for plagiarism.
Students who are unsure how and when to provide documentation are advised to consult with their instructors. The library has guides designed to help students to appropriately identify a cited work. The full policy can be found on BMCCs web side, www.bmcc.cuny.edu. For further information on integrity and behavior, please consult the college bulletin (also available online).
