Journal Articles as a Model for Lab Reports James Stevens University of Rhode Island EDC 448

The lab report Opportunity to… enhance writing skills communicate knowledge and observations Requires hierarchy of skills… data analysis use of academic language listing of chronological events

Two common approaches Use of a handout… easy to grade reflect student skills and understanding does not enhance writing skills Full-blown lab report… may help students make connections may help generate new knowledge cannot make assumptions...

New approach Use journal articles to model lab reports learn to construct various sections of article/report promote understanding of concepts simple → complex learnwrite

An overview citation observationdatadiscussion Guidelines… provide handout of tips and questions refer to journal article require proper grammar, paragraph formation, etc.

Citation Ask students to… correctly cite journal article identify parts of journal article appreciate brevity 321

Observation Ask students to… describe chronology report what they see relate to content relate to/critique journal article Let’s try… Precipitation

Data Ask students to… classify and organize data create data table relate to content relate to/critique journal article Let’s try… Titration

Discussion Ask students to… describe their results relate to observations relate to content relate to/critique journal article Let’s try… another day!

My thoughts Great way to… engage kids help kids teach kids to write take the edge off…

Your thoughts ?
