III Laboratory Records & Report Formats 20 Fall 2010 claims and warrants. Include graphs and/or tables that summarize your results in an organized manner such that it can be easily cited in your warrants. Types of Data Presentations: Summaries of spectral data should include the specific spectral characteristics (peak positions, shapes and/or multiplicities) that are important in interpreting the spectra. When creating tables, use page breaks to keep tables from being split between pages of your report. When a table is too long to fit on one page, repeat the header row, which contains the column definitions, at the top row on each new page. If you need assistance with page breaks or other word processing techniques, consult your instructor before submitting your report. Each item in this section should have: • A designation (e.g. Table 1, Figure 1, etc.) to facilitate citing in your discussion. • A descriptive title to indicate what data is being presented (e.g. Boiling Points of Products). • Specific references to laboratory notebook and/or data binder pages containing the original data. (Indicate both group member’s name and pages containing the data.) Discussion and Conclusions: In this section provide your group’s final claims that are based on all results available from the experiment and warrants needed to show how each claim is supported by specific data entries in the Summary of Results section. The warrants, directly supported by specifically cited data entries, are most important, since unsupported claims are worth very little. Statements such as "The IR and mass spectra from table 1 indicate that unknown # 3 is 4-hydroxybenzoic acid," and “As indicated in Figure 2, the mp of compounds is unaffected by their molecular masses.” are not acceptable warrants since they are too vague and lack specific interpretations of the data that lead to the claim. You must explain the reasoning process that allowed you to discern your claim from the cited data. E.g. “The IR absorptions 3300 cm -1 (Br & St)(O-H stretch) and 1715 cm -1 (C=O stretch) suggest the presence of a carboxylic acid and the M + ion at m/e = 138 are consistent with unknown # 3 being 4-hydroxybenzoic acid” or “The plot in Figure 2 shows no correlation between the mp and molecular mass of the compounds studied, so our claim is that mp is unaffected by changes in molecular mass.” Remember that your warrants should be clear and concise. Excessively long and wandering responses, which attempt to include all information that might be relevant to the question in hopes of hitting something that is correct, will not be graded. Reflections: This section provides an opportunity for you to look back on the experiences in the experiment to think about how they have affected your understanding of the concepts developed from answering the QOW and how they provided warrants justifying the claims based on data and other evidence. First compare your group’s initial and final claims, the data or evidence that supported each and the warrants justifying each set of claims. Finally, briefly explain your current understanding of concepts developed or supported by your experience and provide warrants to justify your positions. Appendix This section includes: • One copy of all CHEM 211 Experiment sheets provided to you for the experiment. • All primary data record pages from group member data binders. These sheets must be numbered and have appropriate titles and references to notebook pages. They are attached to the lab report with a binder clip. When your graded lab report is returned to you, place the report and the data binder materials back in the proper binder tabs. Personal Blog Comment for the Week For weeks when group lab reports are due, your weekly personal blog comment (See course Syllabus) will be dedicated to your lab report experience. In this comment you will assess your contributions and those of your group mates toward the data analysis and preparation of the group lab report.
Fall 2010 21 Part III. Lab Records & Report Formats Collaboration and Academic Honesty Collaboration among students in the lab and in preparation of group lab reports is required. Educational research indicates that students learn best when they engage in discussions and analyses of information with their peers. Most reports will also require analysis of data from all class members. However, the final version of all written work submitted for evaluation by your group must be prepared without consultation with members of other groups. To be fair to all students in the course and to assure maximum learning for each student, we follow all the guidelines for academic honesty spelled out in the <strong>Moravian</strong> College Student Handbook (See College Website http://www.moravian.edu/studentLife/handbook/academic/academic2.html).
