Lab Report

Introduction

In this project, we were able to create a scientific experiment and a hypothesis. We conducted the experiment by going around the campus and asking other students survey questions, and then we consolidated and interpreted all the data that was given. We created a scientific paper on our report, and we enhanced our strategy for self-assessment by editing and revising each other’s work throughout the process, allowing us to see our work through our group members eyes. We followed the conventions of the genre of scientific writing by following IMRAD format throughout our paper as well as our presentation. We also had to collaborate with each other in order to come together to write one piece that we all equally shared parts writing. We also had to socialize with outside people in order to get our results, as it was a survey. We worked together outside of class to get the data as well as work on the paper and presentation and had to be organized and careful with the time. Our hypothesis was the stance that we took in our report, as it was an educated opinion on what we expected based on the use of the internet and online databases that we analyzed. We cited the source that we used and summarized it. We practiced summarizing and consolidating our work for the presentation, which also practiced our use of other media to express our work. We practiced our presenting skills, and ability to share the work for presenting as well.
