THE LAB REPORT
A lab report is a permanent record of
everything that
occurs during an experiment.
-
It must be written in blue or black ink (or
typed)
-
don't erase mistakes or use white-out
-
cross out a mistake and initial it!
-
that "mistake" may be useful later
-
may not be recopied or re-typed (only the
original is accepted)
-
one lab report per person (no group lab
reports)
- copying off a partner's lab report is not
acceptable!
-
Your lab report should be so good that a person
could pick it
up and repeat your experiment without talking to you!
There are 9 sections of a lab report:
-
Title
-
Heading
-
Problem
-
Hypothesis
-
Materials
-
Hazards
-
Procedure
-
Data
-
Conclusion
