Lab Notebooks
Wednesday--Aug 26, 2009 Filed in:
233
Since there have
been so many questions, I wanted to elaborate on what
lab notebooks are acceptable for CHEM 233. The only
requirement is that the notebook must be
spiral-bound. No loose-leaf sheets will be counted
toward the notebook grade at the end of the semester.
It does not have to be an "authentic" notebook like
those solid in the bookstore. Having said that, I do
recommend that you purchase a lab notebook with
carbon copies that you can tear out. If your notebook
is lost or stolen, you will at least be able to
present the carbon copies as proof that you completed
the notebook. If you do not choose to go this route,
then at least make a photocopy of your entries each
week as a backup. While we're on the topic of
notebooks, remember that it will be graded at the end
of the semester according to the notebook grading
rubric in the course
manual. Look at this rubric now, so that you are
completing your weekly entries correctly.
