 DW> students regarding their experiences (good or bad) in taking
 DW> laboratory- based courses during their collegiate careers.

this is right up my alley because I have had many labs.  all were bad
and you'll have to fight your way all the way through them but only
because of the narrow minded professors.  these labs ranged from
phisology to 5 chem labs to a few food science labs.  the treatment I
recieved ranged from the professors refusing to have you in the class or
ignoring you as though you did not exist.  Different methofds were used
from other students did the experiments whil you sat waiting for the
data with little or no explanation where or how the numbers came from.
I was alwas required by the school to have a lab assistant/babysitter
who was not
in the class.  this was all a joke.  the few labs where i learned a lot
and bennefited the most was the labs where i worked as an equal partner
in the lab with a small group.  onne which i was a participant just like
anybody else.  too bad there weren't more of these types.  boy! some
people are so smart and yet so stupid.
