LEVEL OF OPENNESS 1
1.1 Introduction
Level 1 laboratory activity refers to condition where the problem and ways & means are
guided and given to the students. However the answers to the assignment are left to
the students to solve using the group creativity and innovativeness. It is hoped that the
activity will slowly introduce and inculcate independent learning amongst students and
prepare them for a much harder task of open-ended laboratory activities.
In this laboratory session, students will be introduced on how to determine the particle
density and specific gravity of soil.
1.2 Objective
The objective of the test is:
To determine the specific gravity of soil using density bottle.
PREAMBLE
1.3 Learning Outcomes
At the end of the laboratory activity, students would be able to:
1.Conduct the laboratory experiment and being exposed theoretically to other
alternative methods of particle density testing.
2. Analyse data correctly and present in typical format
3. Work in a group to produce technical report.
