Linear Motion<br />

11 th grade stud<strong>en</strong>ts, carried out experim<strong>en</strong>ts<br />

on linear motion. They used<br />

brand new Vernier equipm<strong>en</strong>t for this<br />

purpose.<br />

Stud<strong>en</strong>ts examined a differ<strong>en</strong>t kind of<br />

motion and contrasted features of the<br />

position-time and velocity-time graphs<br />

with those they had studied earlier.<br />

Daniela Larrabure, Ignacio Guillén and Joaquín<br />

Leyva discussing and processing the data gathered<br />

after having performed the linear motion experim<strong>en</strong>t<br />

with the Vernier dynamics track, detector and data<br />

collector interface.<br />

Temperature<br />

11 th Grade<br />

The very first activity was to measure<br />

temperature change. Stud<strong>en</strong>ts used<br />

Vernier’s LabQuest® 2 data logger and<br />

Temperature Probe to collect readings.<br />

These readings were stored directly<br />

onto the data logger and were processed<br />

in real time to determine graphs<br />

and equations. Such a powerful tool really<br />

made the differ<strong>en</strong>ce and everyone<br />

<strong>en</strong>joyed the activity.<br />

Paula Rodríguez getting the readings from Vernier’s<br />

LabQuest® 2 data logger and temperature probe.<br />

Arianna Costa and Mayté Guamán taking notes after<br />

obtaining the graph and equation for future analysis<br />

and conclusions.<br />

Demos Using Vernier Equipm<strong>en</strong>t<br />

As part of the Sci<strong>en</strong>ce Fair activities, some experim<strong>en</strong>ts using<br />

our Vernier equipm<strong>en</strong>t were created with interaction in mind,<br />

so visitors could see how stud<strong>en</strong>ts learned Sci<strong>en</strong>ce through<br />

real life and funny experim<strong>en</strong>ts.<br />

Isabella Riva and Josemar Cueva, from the Advanced Physics class, practice<br />

with Vernier’s LabQuest® 2 data logger, Photogate and Picket F<strong>en</strong>ce to measure<br />

the acceleration of gravity in Lima.<br />
