ICT-based worksheets include more instruction than other kinds of activity. The activities within this booklet can be adapted to work with all kinds of sensors and software. They were made for ''Easysense Q'' equipment and software, so you will find detail differences between this and what you have. The ideas however, are highly adaptable and ought to mesh well with UK curricula.
	ICT-based worksheets include more instruction than other kinds of activity. A point to reflect on is the amount of detail that a worksheet needs. Do first time users and experienced users need a different level of support? What is there to gain, or lose, by holding back on detail?
