How to Sumbit
You and your group will submit your project on D2L;
here are instructions.
You must submit your project in pdf format. When Word documents are uploaded to D2L, the equations in them are commonly jumbled around. Only ONE group member should submit the project. Having multiple people in your group submit the project to D2L will result in multiple grades, and we will take the LOWEST one.
Report Guidlines
Your report should be written in a professional format. You
should assume that your audience hasn't seen the lab
instructions and your report should be in paragraph format, not
a list of answers to each question. Additionally:
- You are encouraged to work in groups of up to three. Working in larger groups will result in a zero for all group members.
- Make sure your recitation number is on your submitted
report.
- Include a brief introduction that summarizes necessary
background information and the goal of the lab.
- Include a brief conclusion that summarizes the main
results of the lab. This should answer/address the goal you
discussed in the introduction.
- Include units in your answers.
- Label plots (title and axes) and explain their relevance
to the project in the text.
- Include important formulas used and main results in the
body, however...
- do NOT include lengthy calculations. These can be included
in an appendix, and referred to in the main body.
- Labs must be typed, including the equations in the main
body (part of your learning experience is to learn how to
use an equation editor). An exception can be made for
lengthy calculations in the appendix, which can be hand
written (as long as they are neat and clean).
- You must include any plot that supports your conclusions
or gives you insight in your investigations.
- Write your report in an organized and logical fashion.
Section headers such as Introduction, Calculations, Results,
Conclusion, Appendix, etc... are not mandatory, but are
highly recommended. They not only help you write your
report, but help the reader navigate through your paper,
besides giving it a cleaner look.
