How to Write a Lab Report: Guidelines, Rubric, and Sample Write Up
Lab Report - Lab report rubric, lab conclusionThis lab report bundle has saved me hours of grading and preparation usually required when grading lab reports consistently and fairly. Instead of the teacher writing multiple notes to the student on their reports, you can merely circle the rubric category that your student falls into. Students immediately know where they went wrong, and how to fix it. Also, the lab format sheet is written for easy student understanding, and application.This bund
