Drawing on many sources, it catalogues the sensors available and suggests what they might be used for. There are not only classic and novel school experiments but also ideas to investigate, such as ‘which fabric keeps us warmest?’ Though this manual appeared at a time when teachers were asking ‘what do I use the technology for’, it also aimed to show how sensors can enhance science teaching. Some of the ideas from this book are collected on [[Data_logging_ideas|our page with data logging ideas]]. | ||
