This 280-page book contains35 student experiments using the Vernier sensors contained in the CBL Standard Chemistry Package. The Vernier sensor contained in the CBL Physical Science Package are used to collect data in the experiments. The voltage, light and temperature probes included with the CBL are also supported. This manual shows how an integrated approach to teaching math and science can be accomplished through laboratory activities. Science teachers can update their math skills as they try new methods of collecting and analyzing data.
Math teachers can also find scientific applications for students to explore.
Density, pH, and reaction rates are covered in chemistry. Osmosis, respiration rates, and enzyme activity are among the biology activities. Through these experiments students explore a variety of functions and investigate the interrelationships among graphs, tables, algebraic expressions, and physical conditions. This comprehensive collection of activities, in blackline master format, allows students in advanced algebra to predict results, perform experiments, and analyze real data collected in the classroom.
