How is LabWrite structured?
LabWrite is structured around four stages: PreLab, InLab, PostLab, and LabCheck. Each stage corresponds to a part of lab. For example, the PreLab helps you understand what you’ll be doing in lab before you go do the lab. The InLab helps you with collecting and managing data during your experiment. PostLab guides you in writing your lab report by helping you put together all the information you’ve gathered before and during lab. LabCheck helps you revise your lab report before you turn it in as well as when you get it back. Each of the four stages has its own homepage. At a stage homepage, you can choose the Tutor, the SelfGuide, and in some cases, the Handout. Each of these choices provides an option for using LabWrite. The Tutor is interactive, helping you complete all parts of lab online. The SelfGuide is a series of web pages you can use any other web site. Handouts, when included, are there for you to copy and paste into a word processing software or to fill in by hand. Also on eac
