SECTION THREE : Introduction

Establishing a context for the lab

Step 1: Revise your answer to PreLab question 1 in one or two paragraphs. Begin the Introduction with 1 or 2 sentences clearly stating what scientific concept the lab is about. Then use the rest of your answer to question 1 to complete the paragraph with information about the scientific concept. Revise your answer so that it includes only the information that relates specifically to this lab. If you have a lot of information, make two paragraphs. Note any citations you use here for including in the References section of your report.

Step 2: Revise your answers to PreLab questions 2 and 3. Write the main objectives of the lab in sentence form. Then complete the paragraph by describing how the achievement of these objectives helped you learn about the scientific concept of the lab.

Step 3: Revise your answers to PreLab questions 4 and 5 in a paragraph or two. First, state your hypothesis clearly (even if it was not supported by the data). Then rewrite the explanation for your hypothesis so that your reader understands how the reasoning behind your hypothesis is based on the scientific concept of the lab.
