Team Writing
Outline is important (include placement of tables of data and illustrations).
Each team member has an assignment.Review each others’ work.Integrate all of the pieces (sections
written by different people, data, illustrations) to make a smoothly flowing, coherent, complete report.

Outline
In general, when writing an individual report, you often keep the outline of the report in your head
When writing a team report, you must have a detailed outline to avoid redundancies and omissions.

Each Member Writes
Employers rate writing among the most important skills
Take the opportunity to practiceEach person develops and writes at least
one section

Integrate the Pieces
The report should look like it was written by one person
Use bold headings and subheadingsUse the same font and heading style
throughout

Lab Report Format
Lab reports should be typed, double-spaced, 10-12 pt. font
Reports are typically 4-5 pages and should include a cover page
Lab reports are graded out of 50 pointsAssume your audience has some
knowledge of engineering principles
