Objective 1- Mark
Describe briefly what are the main goals or learning outcome to perform this lab.
Introduction 2- Marks
Explain the theory behind the practical or experiment. It can include ideal diagrams used in
theory and graphs etc.
Express the goals and assigned tasks for the laboratory using your own words. What are you
given? What are you to find?
What are the applicable analytical representations, concepts, operations, and tools you have
learned from the text and lectures?
What did you learn from this assignment?
Preparation and Procedure 2- Marks
Approximately 1 page of text, providing answers to Laboratory Prep Problems if any.
Often performing the lab activity is facilitated by using your Lab Prep Problem solutions. How do
these solutions relate to the laboratory goals, tasks, and expected results?
Explain your sequence of steps used to achieve the objectives.
Describe the steps that you took and the results that you obtained for each step. Document your
observations in as much detail as possible. Include MATLAB output, screenshots or photos as
necessary.
Results 6- Marks
In this portion, you will show the results/MATLAB output that you obtained for each step. Document
your observations in as much detail as possible. Include MATLAB output or graphs that you obtained
from your experiment. Graphs should be of good resolution with appropriate axes information and
legends (if necessary).
Discussion 3- Marks
In this portion, you will describe what is achieved during experiment. Identify how variables that you
defined in the preparation section correspond to parameters. Mention the key points learned by you and
answer all the questions asked in this section. What difficulties did you encounter, if any? Be sure to
document how you overcame these. Even difficulties that seem to have trivial solutions, e.g., MATLAB
syntax errors, should be documented so that you do not continue to repeat them in future labs. Suggest
ways to improve your results.
Conclusions 1- Mark
Summarize your findings and discussion in ½ page.
