In this course we will use Collaborations to establish an electronic Lab Notebook for each group.
We will be using the information provided at ScienceBuddies.org as the basis for keeping our class group Lab Notebooks: http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project_laboratory_notebook.shtml?from=Blog#usingalabnotebook .
For each Lab session, create a new page in your Lab Notebook (in Canvas Collaborations )
Follow the Lab Notebook entry format to create your entry
Canvas Lab Notebooks will be reviewed weekly according to the Rubric below.
