Equipping Young Minds for the Future

The Concept and Why

• Electronic recording and/storage of data

• ideally for collection of parameters that aretoo fasttoo slowtoo big too small

• ComponentsSensorsLoggersSoftware

• 4 sensor inputs

Equipping Young Minds for the Future

AIMS

By the end of the session participants should have had the opportunity to :

Look at - Data logging software

Access - Remote and real time logging

Be aware of - ICT opportunities in science andscientific applications for Data logging

OBJECTIVE

To go away at the end of the session ‘inspired’ into at least trying to incorporate ICT into future lessons

Be more informed in aspects of Data logging delivery in the class room and experiencethe possibilities of ICT usage
