Welcome<br />

Go Direct with Vernier<br />

We introduced our first Go Direct sensors in 2017. We have added new sensors every<br />

few months since then, and we are excited to say that there are now over 40 Go Direct<br />

sensors! We now have a fairly complete set of sensors for all subject areas, including<br />

physics and human physiology. More Go Direct sensors are coming soon, and the<br />

free Graphical Analysis 4 app to use with them keeps gaining more new features.<br />

Graphical Analysis 4 is available for Windows and macOS computers, Chromebooks,<br />

and iOS and Android devices. The user interface is the same on all platforms, so one<br />

set of experiment instructions works for all devices.<br />

Speaking of experiment instructions, we have revised most of our popular<br />

lab books so that they now include instructions for our Go Direct sensors or<br />

our LabQuest sensors with Graphical Analysis 4.<br />

Since the early days of this company, we have promoted the idea of students<br />

learning how to code through project-based learning. In 1984 we released<br />

How to Build a Better Mousetrap and 13 Other Science Projects for the Apple II,<br />

a book that incorporated coding in electronics projects. This year, we introduce<br />

several new products specifically aimed at teaching engineering and coding.<br />

If you visit the Portland, Oregon, area, we encourage you to drop by for a tour of<br />

our building. We also hold a series of workshops in the summer at our office.<br />

Summer is a great time to visit the Pacific Northwest!<br />

math education, as well as business.<br />
