Objective:

The objective of this lab was to present the rough draft of our scientific poster and receive feedback as we give feedback to the rest of the groups. We then paired with another group to increase the amount of feedback received.

Purpose:

The purpose of this lab was to highlight the importance of reviewing each other’s poster to point out ways to improve that the original group may have not realized. It was also to give us time to implement the feedback before the lab ended.

Procedure:

1. Pull up the rough draft of your scientific poster.
2. Review each group’s scientific poster on its inclusion of the scientific method, the central issue identified, the organization, the evidence’s support of the main claim, the conclusions drawn, and the presentation.
3. Present your poster when it is your turn.
4. Meet with another group after all the presentations and give each other further feedback while examining the poster.
5. Implement the feedback received after the presentations.

Data/Observation:

No data was collected during this lab; however, feedback was observed and given to increase the quality of my group’s scientific poster.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, valuable feedback was received during lab. Reviewing one another’s poster served to shed light in ways to make things better and remove things that are repetitive. For example, our objectives were too similar to our methods section and can be combined. We also found a better way to word our title  and better organize the poster to allow it to be easier to understand in order to more appealing to the eye.

Storage:

Since it occurred in the computer lab, there was no need to store anything.

Future Goals:

In the future, I plan to revise my group’s scientific poster and incorporate all the feedback received to allow the poster to be best improved for the final presentation and symposium. I hope to make the information as succinct as possible and incorporate more charts to best show the information gathered during the experiment.
