Description: Whether you are in the lab or out, a lab notebook can be an essential part of the learning experience. It can
provide a unique opportunity in which students practice writing skills while documenting scientific
observations. However, the use of a traditional paper lab book can be limiting, there is little opportunity for
students to collaborate and get feedback from each other. We will explore a "lab notebook " created in
WordPress that allowed students to practice their scientific writing skills in different ways, interact with
their peers and share their knowledge with the general public.
