Below are reminders of Laboratory Policies
– please see the Psyc350 Laboratory Syllabus
for complete details

# You are expected to attend all
portions of all laboratory meetings. You are responsible for all laboratory
assignments and any changes in those assignments that appear on the webpage
or are announced in lecture or laboratory meetings. ^ In-Laboratory Assignments might not
be completed during the laboratory meeting.
If not, you are expected to complete the remaining portions and return
it to your TA at the beginning of the next lab meeting. ^^Download these assignments, complete
them using Word, WordPerfect, etc. (do not handwrite your answers) and send
them to your TA (ask them if you should print them out or email them). + Take-Home Assignments are due at the
beginning of the next lab meeting. You
will lose 10% of the point value of the assignment it is turned in later than
day and 10% more for each week day that it is late. * Write these drafts and turn them in
at the start of the next lab meeting. Not completing a “good faith effort” of
these drafts will limit your ability to improve your grade by re-writing your
research report. ** Bring three copies of this draft
with you so that may participate in the peer review exercise. Check the
syllabus for details, but you really, really want to have this done well and
on-time! ***Late
Penalties: After the beginning of
class on the day it is due, -10%, with an additional -10% for each additional
day late. If you must miss or be late
for you lab, email your work to your TA before the scheduled beginning of the
class. |
