General Items

• See the lab manual for info on grading, policies, etc.
• There are no more pre-lab questions to be turned in after Lab #5 (Elastic Waves) for the rest of the semester.

Some Grading Specifics

• For Elastic Waves and Dispersion, you will turn in formal reports which are worth 20 points each.

• For Refraction/Imaging, you will give an oral presentation of what you did. This is worth 15 points. We will sit down one-on-one and I will ask you about what you did in the lab and ask you to explain the various procedures and results.

• For all of the other labs, please turn in a clear photocopy of your notebook with all of the relevant information, including diagrams, graphs, and quantitative results. You can turn in your lab notebook instead, but you are not guaranteed to get it back by the next lab period. Each of these labs will be worth 10 points.
