MICROGRANT PROJECT ABSTRACT
Issues addressed: Chemistry; Use of Vernier equipment in Chemistry and AP Chemistry labs
Topic: Learning Inquiry and Data Analysis through Vernier Technology
Rationale/Why this project? (25-50 words): By exposing my students to this advanced type of equipment at the general chemistry and AP levels, my students will be better prepared if they go to college. This type of equipment also results in better results for their labs which allows them to better interpret their data and make conclusions.
