EG1004 Lab Report

A while back, Jason wanted me to post an article for prospective EG1004 students. So here is the post break down into 3 parts on how to write a report based on my personal experiences in writing last semester, apologize for this long wait to Jason.

1. Technical Content: Normally, a report is graded by one TA and one WC depending upon the section. The technical content part acts as question and answer part, what it means is that every question addressed on each particular lab's manual (egmanual.poly.edu) need to be answered in the report. Plus other informations that count toward the final grade: graphs, charts, data, etc. This copy is graded by your TA.

2. Punctuncation: This part belongs to the WC's hands, mainly I lost lots of points because of the missing "the" on my papers. One trick thing about lab reports is that everytime you write about the experiment performed, you need to include a "the" to make specific reference to the things you made or used in lab such as your team ballon, mousetrap car...etc. Please remember to include the "the" on your paper to avoid points reduction. WC also looks for grammar usage in the paper like an English teacher does, but since it's a lab report paper, for as long as you have covered every major step you did in lab using smooth sentence structures, WC will give you good grades.

3. Submit your report on time: Late report submission reduces 10/20 points off the paper, for the sake of points and ultimately your grade, submit your paper early on eg.poly.edu.

Awakening from Math

Today, my Poly friend Raymond asked me a math question which made me so confused. At first,because I felt I did well in math, my confidence made me think i could slove this problem easily without any troubles. However, it took me a long time to think and i failed to get the solution. After this, I realise that though I may own this knowledge today, but it does not mean I will still have this knowledge again in my brain. Thus, do not let your confidence lead you to the wrong direction. Be honest to the truth and yourself.
