The following short format is offered as a guide to the elements of a technical report. This format represents a consensus opinion of many writers and is not be interpreted as the only acceptable format for a technical report. 1. Title Page: This page should include the title of the experiment, course name and number, instructor, group members, date of report, and author. 2. Summary: The summary should indicate the following paragraphs with proper subtitles: (a) Objectives (b) Experimental Setup (including the major equipment used) (c) Results and Discussion: This paragraph should include the experimental results and calculations using words, graphs, and tables, and comparisons of the measured data with the theoretical or expected values. Also, discussions of the results obtained, any interesting phenomena observed, and reasons why they may happen should be included. (d) Conclusion: This paragraph should describe what you have learned from this experiment and what other people can learn from your experiment. 3. References: Include all references that can support your calculations, reasoning, and conclusions. All reports must be typed in double space on one side of the paper (8 ½’’ by 11’’). Each page should be numbered and have a minimum margin of 1’’ on all sides. The report should be bounded with a report cover.
