Are the independent, dependent, and control variables clear and appropriate?
Does the experiment actually address the hypothesis?
Was the experiment carried out with appropriate measurements and precision?
Is a thorough and accurate understanding of the relevant physics demonstrated?
Is the experiment original (we didn’t already do it in class and I can’t find it in existence already online)?
Is the conclusion appropriate and commensurate with the results?
Does the lab report follow the guidelines — both the format and the substance of each section?
