A good title very efficiently tells the reader what
the report is about. Write a title that captures what is important about
the lab, including the scientific concept the lab.
More Help:
If you are having trouble writing a title, try this approach.
List the keywords related to the report: the scientific concept
of the lab, the kind of procedure you used, names of key materials,
what you observed, etc.
Then write a title that describes the lab using the most important
of these keywords.
Here are some other tips on creating a good title:
A title should use the fewest possible words to adequately describe
the content of the report.
A title should be as specific as possible. Specify the primary
focus of the experiment and
procedures used, including the scientific names of chemicals, animals,
etc.
Do not write the title as a complete sentence, with a subject
and a verb. Titles are labels, not sentences.
Do not use catchy titles. This is not an English paper or an editorial.
Find the right balance for the length of the title: not so short
that it doesn't communicate what the report is about but not so
long that it rambles on for more than a line.
