Abstract

ABSTRACT (10 points)

Purpose: Brief introduction to the experiment.
Procedure: Identifies experimental approach (materials, variables, equip, etc.).
Experimental results are given (numeric when possible).
Significant conclusions are reported.
Needs to be concise

PROCEDURE (10 points)

This should be written in paragraph form.
Be as specific as possible
Someone should be able to complete the same experiment by reading your procedure.

RESULTS (15 points)

Figures and tables are descriptively captioned (figure 1: Hardness values...).
Computations are complete and correct (sample calculations cited).
Data and calculated results are presented in tabular or graphical form (% difference, %error, etc.).
Same data does not appear in both tables and graphs (unless in Appendix).
Good comprehension of the relative meaning and importance of the results is shown (trends are cited, averages, extremes, % change, etc.).

DISCUSSION (30 points)

Order of presentation is logical.
Discussion concerns experiment results and correlation with analysis, not comments on experiment technique or lost data.
Data is interpreted correctly, related to micro-structure.
Comparisons are made between materials and treatments. Results related to micro-strucutre.
Error analysis is performed; deviation from expected results is discussed.
Lab questions to be answered are incorporated within the body of the report.

CONCLUSIONS (15 points)

Most important conclusions are given first.
Conclusions are drawn only from the body of the report.
Micro-structure to property relationships are reinforced.REFERENCES (5 points) References are cited in the text (superscript # or [#] end of sentence)
References are presented in a numbered list in the order of citation
Proper format is used for each reference
All micro graphs and phase diagrams are cited.

WORKUP (10 points)

General arrangement of ideas is logical, clear, and consistent
Grammar, sentence, and paragraph structure are good
Spelling errors are absent, paper has been proof-read
Page composition is appropriate, neat, and pleasing
Units defined on sample calculations, tables, graphs, etc.
