Awesome for at home experiments

The app is great for science classrooms to demonstrate concepts of acceleration, sound intensity, atmospheric pressure, and lux. The app encourages student to apply what they know and analyze the data to glean some information. On the SAMR model, the app could be used at the modification level. The app allows real time data to be gathered and analyzed with a push of a button.

Although the true potential for student learning will come at the hands of middle and high school students, I also see a benefit for elementary students with teacher support. How can we make objective observations? Just open the app and we'll quantify some information! What is data? Let's collect some now and talk about it! How can we visualize information with a chart? Here's what we just observed and here's what it looks like as a graph! Specifically, I look forward to using Science journal with my kindergarten students this coming school year to record different noise levels in the classroom, on the playground, and in the forest behind our school to discuss the quietest environments available to us, sharing the graphs via a classroom Chromecast. Now that's science!
