This afternoon's Science experiment focuses on outdoor experential learning with the use of dataloggers.
Hope u have learnt one thing or another today. We will be using it once more next week, and afterwhich, u will probably see it again only in sec schs. =P

WHAT IS DATA-LOGGING?
Data-logging is when the computer records information about its surrounding environment. This could be the temperature, the amount of light or sound, atmospheric pressure, humidity etc.
BENEFITS OF DATA LOGGING
1) offer a fun and unique way of learning Science (as compared to textbook-only learning approaches),
2) provide pupils with opportunities to use present-day technology,
3) broaden the range of scientific learning experiences for pupils, as data logger can be used both inside and outside the classroom,
4) stimulate pupils’ higher order thinking skills through analyzing and evaluating the graphs,
5) add more realism and provide pupils with ownership of data, hence pupils take it more seriously,
6) offer time and labour saving.
