Abstract :
This work in progress presents a teaming approach to writing laboratory reports. A journal-style format of authoring and editing is used. The author and editors are assessed as a small group and share the score on the report as a team. A student perception survey was performed for each of two semesters of this project and the results are compared and presented along with student comments and suggestions for improvement
