When I had to adapt a microbiology lab class for a condensed summer course, The schedule did not allow time to write the last report. Since I knew at this point that my students could write lab reports, I came up with an alternative assessment modality. My students read reviews on the project followed by a round-table discussion about how to frame the data and report. It became evident to the students that the data, discussion and the design of additional experiments depended on how the introduction and hypothesis were framed (and there were three very different ways to frame this report). The students got to collaborate and give feedback for the first time. I will now adapt this to a larger class (5 vs 80 students) and have designed a worksheet that will facilitate discussion between small groups where they will create different potential outlines for a lab report.
