| Abstract: | Reports on a first-year laboratory sequence known as the Interdisciplinary Laboratory (ID Lab) introduced at Harvey Mudd College. The course seeks to illustrate commonality of investigative methods and laboratory techniques in biology, chemistry, and physics and introduce discipline-specific principles. Provides details of the experiments conducted, information on the philosophy and mechanics of the course, and a discussion of student reaction to the course. (Author/MM) |
