EVPP 110 Lab Lab Report Review Week of October 29th 2018 Version 1 3. 1/17/2019 12:11:36 PM

Lab reports are due NEXT WEEK You MUST submit your lab report via BlackBoard BEFORE the start of lab!

Writing a lab report Everything must be in the third person (no “I”, “you”, or “we” statements). Write in past tense. The one exception is when you are citing someone else’s published research – then it’s OK to use present tense. You will be graded on spelling, grammar and punctuation. Yes, we know yeast is a simple organism, you don’t have to say that more than once.

Abstract Introduction Should be a mini version of your report. Include ALL sections: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion (conclusions). Introduction Include background information on cellular respiration. This would be a good place to include 1-2 peer-reviewed sources. State your hypotheses at the end.

Methods – make sure you write out what we did in lab! We did not use “dram-shell vials”. Write out the instructions for the entire class (all six pollutants). Do not mention “groups” or “our section”. Two parts to the experiment – carbohydrate and pollutants. Cite your methods (i.e. cite the lab manual).

Usually the shortest section. Do not cite any sources. Results Usually the shortest section. Do not cite any sources. Just say what happened. Paragraph form first. Label all tables and figures. Start with “Table 1”. Table headings go above tables, figure legends go below figures. Fig. 2. Cellular respiration of yeast, water, sugar and six pollutants. Red line represents…

Discussion Works Cited What is the significance of your results? Do your results support your hypotheses? Why or why not? What are your suggestions for future studies? Works Cited Must be peer-reviewed sources. Must be in APA format. Software like Zotero or EndNote makes formatting very easy!

Where to find peer-reviewed literature?
