Pre-Reflection Assignment #1 I will be completing this assignment for Chemical Engineering Lab 1 as an introduction to the writing and formatting process that is expected by Professor Burrows. During this writing, I will work to become familiar with the whole process of the lab report. This will include practicing how to format professional tables and plots, with clear and understandable information and captions. My previous experience with formatting reports in Microsoft Office and utilizing Microsoft Excel for tables and plots will be utilized. Strengths that I have come from my need to make the document have a professional look, as I have not only wanted to provide quality information, but also to make the report aesthetically pleasing. Places of improvement could include time efficiency, including effectively gathering data from online or public sources. I believe this first assignment will be at least sufficient with completing all of the tasks required with proper formatting, with a hope that what is sought after or expected will be completely understood. By doing this, a certain rhythm of writing the lab reports and completing further assignments may be obtained that will benefit me for the remainder of the semester. Abstract There are two main points of focus of the following material. The first is to develop an understanding of writing professional reports by collecting data that is used to properly format tables and graphs. The data that is included
The report has to be presented professionally with cover sheet, table of contents and references.”
It is usually presented in the form of a report in tables, charts, statistics, and graphs or on spread sheets etc. This data may be used to arrive at important decisions within the organisation or with external organisations. So the data report has to be produced in such a way that it meets the aims and
This document is not meant to be a substitute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s questions, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ writing of lab reports by providing this information in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.
When your lab report is complete, submit this document to your instructor in your assignment box.

On the next change request we were asked to make reports. The use of reports is to view, format, and summarize data. Reports provide a way to distribute or archive snapshots of your data, either by being printed out, converted to PDF or XPS files, or exported to other file formats ("Introduction To Reports", 2013).

As the first written assignment (due January 22, 2016) for the Junior Chemical Engineering Lab (CHE 352) taught by Professor Burrows, I will be endeavoring to provide a superior reflection of my personal standards and assignment quality. Although this assignment will be submitted to Professor Burrows, the individual that this assignment will benefit the most is me. This work will allow me to focus on data research, data analysis, professional writing skills, and advance my knowledge concerning the technical requirements of this course; thus, directing me towards a higher level of professional document writing and presentation. Through completion of this assignment, the guidelines of Professor Burrows will prepare me intellectually for the challenges of future written projects in this course, thus making my material easier to read and evaluate.
This section should be concise. List each step of the procedure in either numbered format or you can use bullet points. Remember to always use PASSIVE language when writing lab reports. Never use I placed HCl into a 50mL beaker, instead say 50 mL HCl was placed in a 50 mL beaker.

I will build upon the technical writing skills I learned in junior lab to write the assignments in this course. Knowledge from fluids, heat and mass, separations, reactors, and thermodynamics will all be used to design chemical processes. The basic box and arrow diagrams that were first learned in CHE211 will be expanded in this course to develop process flow diagrams. These skills will be used to meet the instructor’s goals of using compositions and flows to determine process equipment size, its corresponding cost, flow diagrams, and how to synthesize the
With this goal in mind, Micro 310L bridges the gap between theoretical lecture material and lab techniques. However, they could emphasize this connection by focusing on the benefits that come from writing a lab notebook. As a student who has taken many labs at Iowa State University in three different science disciplines, I am qualified to make a slide deck to guide students through the practice of writing a lab notebook. These slides will include an explanation of the material that is included in each section of the notebook. In addition to those slides, there will be examples of lab notebooks for each section that needs to be present in a lab notebook. Also, a description of proper protocol for writing in the lab notebook, such as the use of a pen, will show the student how all professionals write their notebooks. Finally, tips from students and the most common mistakes that the professor sees in student lab notebooks will be incorporated throughout the
