Electronic Lab Notebook
Complete your electronic notebook on your individual journal page. Your notebook entry should contain:
- The purpose: what was the purpose of your investigations?
- Your methods: what did you actually do? Give a step by step account for Tasks 1-4 listed above.
- There should be enough detail provided so that you or another person could re-do it based solely on your notebook.
- You may copy protocol instructions on your page and modify them as to what you actually did, as long as you provide appropriate attribution.
- Take advantage of the electronic nature of the notebook by providing screenshots, links to web pages, links to data, etc.
- Your results: the answers to the questions below, plus any other results you gathered.
- Usually it makes sense to embed your answers to the questions/results in the "methods" in the order in which you obtained them.
- A scientific conclusion: what was your main finding for today's project? Did you fulfill the purpose? Why or why not?
Access SQL: basic concepts, vocabulary, and syntax
For your electronic lab notebook this week, do the following:
- Upload your zipped Microsoft Access FDA database to the wiki and link to it on your individual journal page.
- Write up the methods you used to create the database, load the tables, and write your first query.
We will work with this database for a future assignment in the class. -->
