Specifically, the lab report needs to compare the differences in force variables between a Walk, Slow Run, and Fast Run. You will only be rewriting the results and discussion section. My write up for the discussion section will be sent across to you tomorrow; in the mean time you can work on the results section. For the results section the graphs will likely need to be improved (guidance on how to do that in the attached resource- see below), for example adding error bars or even changing the type of graph used or even using a table instead of a graph if you feel that is more appropriate. Some of the writing may also need to be improved in the results section- again guidance below.
Breakdown for each resource that I have attached:
Guidance for lab report:-
The only two headings relevant are: Essential and recommended readings (you can use some of these books for references if you wish) and the whole of Section Two: Associated Assessment Block Information and Guidance
Lab 5 Forces in walking and running:-
This document was our guide during the lab session; it explains everything we did.
RESULTS SECTION:-
This is the work that need rewriting (I have also included things to consider at the top of the page). At the bottom of this document and the “assignment write up” document I have included my recommendations for improvement and also notes and lecture slides from our lecture “preparation for the lab report”.
(a) formulas, graphs and statistics using excel and (b) effective
presentation of graphs and tables:-
These files was a work sheet where we were taught how to produce graphs effectively for this assignment. This will help you to decide how to present the data in the results section. Some sections in these documents won’t be relevant to you (i.e. some of the work sheets) but I recommend you use these documents to give you an idea about what the examiner is looking for in terms of the presentations of graphs or tables and when deciding what is the most appropriate way to present the data (i.e what type of graph is best to present my data or is a table better etc.)
Assignment write up:-
Results from the lab session:-
This document contains a table of the recorded value from the lab session.
