Here is the lab standards information:
Learning Standards for Laboratory Reports
College Prep Science
Introduction
• The introduction describes the background, as it relates to the question that will be investigated.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Hypothesis
• The hypothesis is an “educated guess” about what will happen in the experiment.
• The hypothesis is supported by scientific principles.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Procedure
• The procedure is summarized in a paragraph form.
• The procedure explains how the lab was set up, how data was collected, and how measurements were made.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Data/Data Analysis
• The data is neatly displayed in tables, graphs, or diagrams.
• The tables and graphs are clearly labeled, easy to follow, have a title, and include the correct units.
• The tables and graphs include a written description.
• All calculations are shown and a written analysis describes any pattern or trend.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Conclusion
• The hypothesis is accepted or rejected based on data.
• This conclusion is supported by examples taken directly from the data.
• The results are connected to the scientific principles.
• The conclusion points out possible sources of error.
• Suggestions are made for ways to improve the experiment.
