We recommend starting with the Sensor Immersion听unit first before starting one of the other sensor integrated units.听
The Sensor Immersion unit builds the foundation knowledge of sensors by introducing听students to programmable听sensor technologies that can be used as tools to investigate, monitor, and communicate classroom environmental data (e.g. temperature, humidity, sound volume, carbon dioxide level, volatile organic compound level, and the soil moisture of a classroom plant).
Sensor Immersion
Students explore programmable sensor technologies as a tool to investigate, monitor, and communicate classroom environmental data.听
Mold Growth
Students investigate and use programmable sensor technologies to monitor their school for the conditions that support mold growth.听
Maglev Trains
Students investigate how a maglev train works by exploring fixed and electro-magnets and magnetics fields.
Ecosystems Compost
Students investigate matter and energy cycling through a vermicompost system monitored using sensor technology.
