At the heart of PASCO’s Physical Science through Inquiry lab manual is a commitment to ensuring student learning through all phases of a lab activity. Questions embedded throughout the activity, sequencing and key term challenges, opportunities to predict outcomes prior to data collection and post-lab multiple choice questions all help to make the connection between lectures and labs as seamless as possible.
Over 29 lab activities are included and all of them can be edited to suit the needs of your students or to better coordinate with your classroom lectures.
How-to videos are included with the manual, on the PASCO web site and on YouTube, and can even be installed on your own computers. These videos focus on setting up the labs and getting the most from your PASCO sensors and equipment.
