result for the lab
1. We made the surface smooth and flat by filing using smithy machine.
2. The drill was 0.25”.
3. We made the surface smooth and flat by taking off 0.042
4. After we made the surface smooth and flat, we paint the metal.
5. While waiting for it to dray, we draw on a paper first to get approve
6. We used this tool to draw on the metal because it is easy to see the measurement and to
draw the three shapes given in lab2.
7. Finally, we used the smithy machine to take off the parts that we do not need. We took
off 0.042 (assumed) because we forget to see the measurement on the machine.
Errors we did:
1. There are some corners are not sharp, which means the corner is not 90 degree.
2. We went over the line that we draw as seen in the middle of the square in the left top
corner.
Safety equipment:
1. Goggles.
Additional note:
We used the x and y axis to move, and the y axis was locked.
Lab Report Grading Criteria
In writing lab reports or PowerPoint presentations, I like to use the metaphor of
fine dining. In fine dining, you may have several courses presented to you as the meal.
The number of courses may range from four to 20. For our example, I will use a fourcourse meal; the appetizer or soup, the starter usually a salad, the main course,
followed by the desert.
When sitting down to eat you do not anticipate a time constraint. You plan to have a
leisurely pleasant meal. However, what happens if you need to leave unexpectedly.
Moreover, you only have 15 minutes to complete your meal. Which course do you
choose?
In writing a lab report, I relate this to the percentage of text allocated to each
section. If I receive a six-page lab report, which includes a cover page, followed by
a two-page introduction and one page background, leaving only two pages to describe
the work done. This would not be a satisfactory lab report. In effect, you have
increased the soup and salad and shortchanged the beef. This would be considered
fluff and graded accordingly.
Writing a report or giving a presentation ultimately reduces to telling a story.
Stories have elements, plots, and resolutions. These might be considered analogous
to the sections listed in the ‘Writing Lab Reports’ web-page.
The Introduction,
Design Approach, Theory and Calculations, Experiment Procedure, Analysis,
Discussion of the Results and Corrections, and the Conclusion.
In an effort to give some idea of the grading criteria, an outline of some of things
that I consider essential elements to any story told of this lab experience are listed
below. The student has the freedom and the responsibility to tell their own story in
a manner they find pleasing; so various elements might fit under different sections
depending on the approach of the storyteller.
I.
The introduction (setting the stage and including a clear statement of
the purpose of the lab)
II.
Process
• Stock size
•
Specification (where did it come from, which one selected, and
maybe why)
III. Task
•
List of tools (how they were used)
•
Cutting the part (description of the use of the vise and the
hacksaw)
•
Defining the sides (description of how – including: deciding,
calculations, marking, and measuring)
•
Filing (starting with which surface, why, and files used)
•
Finding the center of the stock (how)
•
Drilling (hole size selection)
•
Tap & Die (hole size selection, tap & die selection, and rod
selection)
IV.
Problems
•
Understanding (insight gained)
•
Filing
•
Measuring
•
Drilling
•
Tap & Die
V.
Remedies
VI.
Time (spent and the cost of time value of the part produced)
VII. Accomplishments
•
Part (quantified)
•
Cost
•
Intangibles (team work, safety, tolerances, self-assessment)
With this information read your submissions. How many items are included? I do
not judge or grade your lab report based on its bulk. Rather I judge it on its
content. I read every word; a short concise report that fully covers the lab will
receive a grade of 100%. Your goal is to portray the work you have done, the
results and analysis you have gotten, and the conclusions you have reached
.
I have not set down a rigorous structure or format for lab reports. I have given
you a general outline that encompasses the basic structure of lab report writing. I
have left open for your interpretation how you are going to write and arrange your
information for the various sections. The reason is to allow you to find your own
unique voice and style.
There are many ways to structure and organize your report; however, there is a
general agreement that sections contain specific types of information. Whether
your lab report is to be persuasive, archival, or informational it is a written
representation of your work. It is a roadmap for others to follow and understand
or reproduce and confirm your findings. How you approached the work, the tools
you used, the assumptions you made, the phenomena you observed, and the
hypothesis either confirmed or rejected, is the goal of your report.
As you look at the table below, you will note a maximalist to minimalist approach.
There appears to be a wide variation, but upon closer examination, the differences
represent your approach to telling the story of the work you have done for a
particular type of lab. How you ‘tell your story’ may require you to emphasize
different types of information and to organize the facts in different sections.
