Regarding: Grading Lab Reports
1. I try to assign some questions with the lab experiment. These
can then be graded and help to determine the overall grade.
2. One interesting idea that I have not tried yet (but might in the
future) is to give a lab final exam. In this system, the lab grade
comes from (1) completion of the experiments, and (2) the lab
final. The individual experiments are graded perhaps only on
completeness, thus avoiding the problem of how to grade the
individual reports.
Does anyone else have any comments on lab finals?
