Lab Policies

  1. Students are required to attend Lab Meetings.

    Since we will be doing instruction during the Lab Meeting, not just working through the material, attendance is necessary.

    Make-up labs will only be allowed in the case of an excused absence or a documented, valid emergency. The student must make arrangements with the Lab Instructor to schedule a make-up during another Lab time within a week of returning.

    If you miss a Lab send email to your Lab Instructor. It is often possible to attend another Lab Meeting later in the same week to makeup a missed Lab, space permitting. All scheduled CS 10051 labs may be seen at http://classes.cs.kent.edu/schedule .

    If you make up a lab in another lab instructor's class, have the instructor sign your lab notes to verify you attended his/her lab and performed the work there.
     

  2. Students are required to have the Lab Manual

    The Manual contains detail instrunctions for each Lab Experience and perforated Worksheet pages. Each Lab Experience has a trailing Worksheet. Your Lab Reports will be derived from the notes you recorded during the Lab in your Lab Worksheet.
     

  3. For each Lab students will be required to turn in the current lab worksheet pages plus the formal lab report.

    This allows us to check that your Lab Reports follow the data that you collected in your Lab Worksheet.

    Only the worksheet pages for the current Lab Experience are to be turned in, not the entire Lab Manual.
     

  4. The details of turning in lab reports will be explained in the second lab.


  5. Lab Reports will not be accepted from those that don't participate (attend) in the lab.

  6. Lab Reports for each week are due at noon the day before the next lab meeting.

  7. There will be a 5 point deduction per day, every day, for each day a lab report and notes are late.
