Lab proposals, science & culture

Per emails sent last week
This week only, I am willing to allow an extension of assignment #3 to be submitted on/before 5:00 pm on Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2013:
           3. Reading assignment (Warren and Rosebery textbook): all parts.
This means that we're expecting outstanding chart outcomes for this assignment. Please bring a paper copy as well to class.
1. Density data: due Monday on/before noon
From our discussion last night, the lab design led to a large variation in density data. You will propose a re-design of the density lab activity to collect better data. Include what you will need in terms of materials and supplies. A procedural format is acceptable.
The supplemental instructor will be available to help facilitate questions.

2. Stations Lab Activity (10/29/13): due Monday on/before noon
For ALL of the lab activities that you conducted, submit a two-page, single-spaced document that responds to the following:
a. Develop a question for each activity/station based on YOUR observations. Connect the ideas from the questions and create a question that you would like to investigate
B. Develop a proposal/plan for how you would test your question
C. Identify materials/supplies you will use to test your question
D. Work with the SI to develop plan
