2. Lab Reports¶
Most lab meetings will have an associated pre-lab and a quiz. Meetings 1-11 will have an associated lab report. The final project (Lab 12) has its lab report with specific requirements.
The pre-lab is due a minute before your section’s lab meeting. You must upload all your work on canvas; no hard copy or email would be considered. The GTA will check it off as you arrive. During your lab work, you can use circuit diagrams, equations, data sheets, etc.
The quiz carries 10 points, and is given at the beginning of each lab meeting.
All submissions are online in Canvas. Do not email your TAs with pre-labs and lab reports.
The final project report is discussed later in this document.

The lab report is due a minute before your section’s lab meeting the following week. Your report should include an introduction, where you state what you will do in the lab and why. In the body of your report, include all screenshots, calculations, and answers to questions in the lab writeup.
All figures and tables should be numbered with a descriptive caption. See any chapter of our lab manual for examples of numbering tables and figures and adding captions. Your conclusion should summarize the lab. State what you learned and include any problems you encountered.
