For each lab submission, completely fill out and include the cover page:

DOC or

PDF

Labs will not be accepted without the cover sheet

Late submission penalty is 20% lab grade per day late

The definition for a late lab is if you don't hand in your hardcopy when you walk into your class (or don't submit the softcopy before coming to class) you have a late submission.

Weekends will be considered as late days.
