GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
1. You must arrive on time since
instructions are given and announcements are made at
the start of class.
2. Awork station and lab partners
will be assigned to you in the first lab meeting. You
will do experiments in a group
but you are expected to bear your share of responsibility
in doing the experiments. You
must actively participate in obtaining the data and
not merely watch your partners do
it for you.
3. The assigned work station must
be kept neat and clean at all times. Coats/jackets
must be hung at the appropriate
place, and all personal possessions other than those
needed for the lab should be kept
in the table drawers or under the table.
4. The data must be recorded
neatly with a sharp pencil and presented in a logical way.
You may want to record the data
values, with units, in columns and identify the
quantity that is being measured
at the top of each column.
5. If a mistake is made in
recording a datum item, cancel the wrong value by drawing a
fine line through it and record
the correct value legibly.
6. Get your data sheet, with your
name, ID number and date printed on the right corner,
signed by the instructor before
you leave the laboratory. This will be the only valid
proof that you actually did the
experiment.
7. Each student, even though
working in a group, will have his or her own data sheet
and submit his or her own written
report, typed, for grading to the instructor by the
next scheduled lab session. No
late reports will be accepted.
8. Actual data must be used in
preparing the report. Use of fabricated, altered, and
other students’ data in your
report will be considered as cheating. No credit will be
given for that particular lab and
the matter will be reported to the Dean of Students.
9. Be honest and report your
results truthfully. If there is an unreasonable discrepancy
from the expected results, give
the best possible explanation.
10. If you must be absent, let
your instructor know as soon as possible. A missed lab can
be made up only if a written
valid excuse is brought to the attention of your instructor
within a week of the missed lab.
11. You should bring your
calculator, a straight-edge scale and other accessories to class.
It might be advantageous to do
some quick calculations on your data to make sure
that there are no gross errors.
