Project Execution
Formulate a scientific question with your chosen category and use the scientific method to explore it. Collect data with your group and use this data to support your research. You will produce a written report and an oral presentation to share your findings with your lab section at the end of the semester. These skills are invaluable for anyone pursuing a career in science, encompassing both scientific inquiry and communication.
