Writing Lab Reports

Title: Should be exactly what you studied Abstract: a condensed version of report, reader should understand purpose methods results and significance of the investigation. (approx; 250 words)

Introduction: Why did you study this problem Purpose: a statement of the main focus of the experiment Should include Hypothesis: a prediction of the answer to the problem. -thought up before the experiment

Materials and Methods Procedure: a step by step explanation of how the experiment was carried out Methods from other sources should be referenced Photographs or diagrams of techniques used Detail any variations from lab manual or textbook procedure

-number the steps down the left side of the page Should be organized sequentially for others to repeat exactly if necessary

-write in past tense, passive voice (hint: use "was" or "were" in every sentence)

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 1. Determine the masses of five spheres.

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 1. Determine the masses of five spheres. The masses of the five spheres were determined

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 2. Use a stopwatch to time the fall of each ball.

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 2. Use a stopwatch to time the fall of each ball. A stopwatch was used to time the fall of each ball.

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 3. Record the times in a table.

e.g. Change the following into past tense, passive voice: 3. Record the times in a table. The times were recorded in a table

Results Observations: the information collected in the experiment. Both words and numbers/measures Tables, graphs, and sample calculations all can be put here past tense, passive voice:

Discussion: Use the questions designed to deepen or apply the knowledge gained through the experiment.

Discussion: Should be in paragraph style -answer questions in full sentences and include part of the question in each answer Support your interpretations with data from investigation

Conclusion: the answer to the problem based on the results of the experiment.
