Spark discovery in Chemistry

Get started with 10 free pre-installed Chemistry SPARKlabs.

Yes, get 10 free pre-installed Chemistry SPARKlabs on every SPARK Science Learning System (plus many more in other sciences—over 60 in all!). These standards-based labs completely integrate the relevant science background, and provide a guided approach to thinking about a question and then discovering the science through measurement, analysis and reflection.

Your student never needs to leave the SPARKlab workbook environment—they even collect live data, display, analyze, and provide written responses for assessment —everything is integrated right into the electronic workbook. No more flipping back and forth between paper manuals or other files.

SPARKlabs help both students and teachers in providing what the students need, when they need it—so the focus remains on the learning.

Create your discovery-based learning environment

To equip your class for conducting the 10 pre-installed Chemistry SPARKlabs, we’ve assembled the required PASPORT sensors into a convenient SPARK Chemistry Starter Kit. You’ll need one starter kit and a SPARK Science Learning System for each student lab station or lab group.

What you'll need:

SPARK Science Learning System
(PS-2008)
$299 US Educator Price

The center of your discovery-based science learning environment. The SPARK Science Learning System provides a full color, finger-touch screen navigation and completely intuitive data collection and analysis capabilities. Includes temperature and voltage sensor, plus over 60 pre-installed SPARKlabs.

SPARK Chemistry Starter Kit (PS-2921)
$389 US Educator Price

The Chemistry Starter Kit includes the 3 PASPORT Sensors your students will use in the pre-installed Chemistry SPARKlabs. The Chemistry Sensor simultaneously measures temperature, pH, pressure and voltage. Starter Kit includes:

• Chemistry Sensor (PS-2170)
• Drop Counter (PS-2117)
• Colorimeter (PS-2121)

Looking for more inquiry-based Chemistry labs?

Upgrade from the pre-installed Chemistry SPARKlabs to the full Chemistry through Inquiry content. The manual includes over 20 teacher-designed, standards-based lab activities covering topics such as States of Matter, Chemical Thermodynamics, and Reactions and Solutions.
