Lab Report
Bacterial Isolation
This lab report is for you to reflect on what you completed and learned in this simulation, and to practice your written scientific communication skills.
Sections 1
1.Describe the overall objective and make a hypothesis. 2
2.Introduce relevant background knowledge on this topic. 3
3.Summarize the steps taken in the simulation. 4
- Describe the overall objective and make a hypothesis.
What is the overall purpose of the experiments or activities? Make a hypothesis. Recall that the hypothesis is a claim that answers a question or makes a prediction about an event that has not yet occurred.
Hint: The purpose is often stated in the welcome message of the simulation (as shown in the example image below).
For your entry make sure to include the following:
|
- Introduce relevant background knowledge on this topic.
What have you learned in class or researched on your own that would help prepare for this simulation?
Hint: You can review the “THEORY” section in the simulation (as shown in the example image below)
For your entry make sure to include the following:
|
- Summarize the steps taken in the simulation.
Explain all steps you completed, including the equipment and techniques you used.
Hint: You can use the “MISSION” tab in the LabPad as inspiration (as shown in the example image below).
For your entry make sure to include the following:
|
Describe any obtained results.
Explain all obtained results. Were these results expected or unexpected?
Hint: You can use the “MEDIA” tab in the Lab Pad to revisit relevant images from the simulation (as shown in the example image below).
For your entry make sure to include the following:
|
Discuss the conclusions and implications.
How do your results relate back to the original purpose and your hypothesis? Were there any systematic sources of error that could have affected the results? What did you learn?
For your entry make sure to include the following:
