physics lab report writing and undergraduate research paper writing.I. IntroductionThe City University of New York instituted a writing intensive component in its curriculummore than ten years ago. Queensborough Community College (QCC), being a junior college inthe CUNY System, requires two writing intensive courses for graduation. Our PhysicsDepartment has designated Calculus Physics and Technology Physics classes as writingintensive classes where lab report writing is a substantial element 1. A quick review of the 2014high school SAT score shows that Engineering majors have higher critical reading scores whencompared to English majors, while English majors have higher writing scores when compared toengineering majors 2, 3.
