Week 6 | LONG WEEKEND—No labs all week, BUT … on Thursday, you must meet with lab instructor to discuss preliminary results (tables/figures); draft of Materials & Methods due.a | |
Week 7 | NO LABS—WORK ON LAB REPORT. We WILL have prelab and groups must meet with lab instructors; graphs and tables due; draft of Introduction due. |
a Although we generally schedule 2 wk (weeks 6 and 7) for review of drafts, this review could be done in 1 wk or by meeting with students outside of lab time. Given our routine enrollment of >60 students in four lab sections and our institution's fall academic calendar, the schedule outlined above simply works best for us.
