EE 451 Lab Grading Policy

In the laboratory sections, you will be required to keep a lab book.  The following is a list of the items expected to be included in your lab book.

  • Table of contents in the first two pages with the title of the lab and its page number.
  • Dates on all the pages.
  • Page numbers.
  • Explanation of purpose of lab (don’t just copy from the lab, use your own words).
  • Answers to questions from the lab handout.
  • Good record of what you did in lab, including
    • Sketches of oscilloscope traces and make sure that you label the axis
    • Plots of expected results from MATLAB and use the legend function to label your axis
    • MATLAB source code with comments explaining what you are trying to do
    • C6713 code with comments
  • A conclusion, summarizing the above, showing me that you understand the purpose of the lab.

Anyone that picks up your lab book should be able to repeat your experiments and get the same results whether they are right or wrong.
