My rating of this resource: ***

My experience using this resource:
General Chemistry

Topic I was teaching:
Introduction to the lab

My learning goal for which this resource was used:
Have a standard for writing reports and other science papers

Course Level:
Intro or Regular

How I/my students used the resource:
I am just now reviewing this site but it gives me a good template with which to develop a standard that students will follow for next year. I went to the main site and found the lab notebook information which I found to be very straight foward and complete.

Value Added:
a diciplined approach to lab report and report writing

Strengths:
When students have a clear cut understanding of expectations they can produce much more thoughtful work It is also a good time to discuss the need for documentation.

Weaknesses:
I am not sure yet
