Vernier, the company that makes those really cool data collection probes and sensors and analyzing software, has just announced LabQuest 2 software. As part of their new Connected Science System, LabQuest 2 provides tools for mobile devices such as Android, iPhone and iPad, to collect, analyze, save and share sensor data. The system also allows remote viewing and controlling of LabQuest with a computer and the ability to email data and graphs for later analysis.
This is another example of leveraging the mobile devices that are already in students' hands for educational uses.
Teaching Science with Technology - Looking for a dynamic way to teach science? Vernier puts easy-to-use data loggers, sensors, experiments and graphing/analysis software into the hands of students, helping educators develop the next generation of scientists and engineers.
They allow students to spend more time learning the concepts and theory and also allow for better visualization and analysis of data.
Vernier also has resources to help find grants and funding for these products and I've gotten many through DonorsChoose.
Vernier also runs free workshops around the country where they show you how to use their products. You can also get package deals that include manuals and products.
