A prelab for each laboratory is due the Monday before the laboratory in class except for the last laboratory. For the last laboratory, a description of your new lab idea and materials needed is due on 3/28 in class to allow sufficient time to gather materials or suggest alternatives. Laboratory reports are due a week after each lab ends at the start of lab.
The reports will then be assigned to a reviewer. The reviewer will hand the review back at the next lab. The
reviews will be given back to the original writer who can then revise
the lab report and turn it in for final
grading along with the review at the start of the next laboratory.
There will be no report for your last laboratory. Instead, your team
will present your findings to the class on the last day of that lab.
Consult the writing guide when writing your prelabs, reports, reviews, and
preparing your presentation. No
work is accepted after the due date. All reports must be handed in to pass the course.
