You can earn up to 7 pts for report content and up to 4 pts for
writing quality.
Content
Here are some of the main points to think about while you read
about radon and to discuss when you write your report:
What is ultraviolet
light? How is it different from visible light?
Does UV light just come from the sun or are there other
sources?
What are some of the health risks associated with exposure to
UV light? Are there any benefits?
UV light is used in a variety of ways. You might
mention some of them. You might know of some uses not
discussed in the reference material.
Fluorescence is mentioned in the reference material but isn't
explained. What is fluorescence (cite any references you
use if you try to answer this question)?
Writing Quality
Here are some things you can do to maximize your chances of
earning a high writing quality grade:
Explain the material in your
own words - your report should be your understanding and
explanation of the material. Avoid generalities, try to
include specific details and examples from the reading
section. The separate sections or paragraphs of your paper
should blend together into one seamless coherent report. Your
report should be nearly free of misspelled words and grammatical
errors.
