We will begin labs on the first week of class.
- Before Lab:
- Watch Instrumentation Podcast.
- Read Lab 1 and Hlimoneko Paper linked below.
- Do Lab 1 PreLab Quiz in Laulima under Tests and Quizzes before lab (based on Hlimoneko). You get 2 tries.
- Please bring a bound notebook to lab for your lab notebook. (e.g., a $1 composition book, used is OK)
- In Lab: Lab Activity Week 1:
- Lab 1 Data Aquistion and Finger Pulse Practical to come on this material
- Discuss Hlimoneko 2003 Paper.
- Downloadable link to discussion questions
Check out the LABS tab on the upper menu bar for Quick Reference Guide and Standard Protocols.
- After Lab: Assignment Week 1:
- Write the Methods and Text of the Results for Wilkinson et al 2000 (see instructions on this link).
- Wilkinson et al 2000 figures
- Lab report guidelines
Notes: A rough guide to length for this mini-lab is 1-2 pages. Content is more important than length. You do not need to fill up the 2 pages (if you finish in 1.5 pages, that’s even better).
The first lab will focus on data analysis to set you up well for the remaining labs in this class. Please try hard to understand the mechanisitic and conceptual connections between data and ideas/conclusions.
You will be turning in 1 assignment per group. Include the full names of each lab member and who is Project Coordinator.
If you are confused about any of the instructions or have any questions about the assignments, please send let us know.
