TRANSCRIPT
Summary of lab reportsYour reports are awesome!
Units (hand written data sheets) Always include your own raw data in the report Partner’s name Organized data sheet/neat hand writing Label the parameters in the figure Error analysis (understand what you reported)
New reports are due next week.
