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 />
