Forensics with Vernier is for teachers at the high school level who wish to introduce their students to forensics using engaging and realistic laboratory activities with Vernier probeware.
Containing lab activities dealing with various aspects of forensic science, each lab is preceded by a short scenario that introduces the concepts or methods to be addressed in the lab. These introductory sequences are designed to “hook” the students and show them situations that require various forensic techniques. The Case Analysis questions for each activity relate to the concepts and techniques addressed in the lab, and many require the students to “solve” the crime introduced in the scenario with the data they collect.
Forensics with Vernier has printed student instructions for computer data collection with LabQuest App and EasyData instructions on the accompanying CD.
This book contains nine hands-on experiments and two culminating engineering projects that allow elementary students to learn about solar energy and develop solutions to real-world problems.

This book contains over 30 guided-inquiry-based investigations for physics students to explore and analyze key physics concepts included in NGSS.
Description
Physics Explorations and Projects is a collection of laboratory investigations aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Most included investigations set up a situation for students to explore and analyze with some guidance from the instructor—a guided-inquiry format that is very different from traditional laboratory experiments that provide step-by-step instructions. The activities are editable and appropriate for high school students from 9th grade to AP Physics. Sample results are included with the extensive instructor information.
Due to the nature of these activities, minimal instruction is provided for software use and data analysis. Instructor experience with Vernier sensors and software is recommended.
Sensor Cart Physics, authored by Roger F. Larson, features 21 guided-inquiry investigations using the Vernier Go Direct® Sensor Cart. It provides a stimulating structure to explore introductory through AP-level concepts in kinematics, dynamics, and conservation of energy and momentum.
The Go Direct® Sensor Cart is equipped with three sensors: a motion encoder wheel that reports the cart’s position, velocity, and acceleration; a force sensor with a range of ±50 N; and a 3-axis accelerometer—providing hands-on opportunities to explore basic physics principles. The sensor data are transmitted via Bluetooth® wireless technology to devices for inspection in the free Graphical Analysis™ 4 app.
Each of the investigations provides an experiment video or photo to offer guidance. Links to internet background information are included in the Introduction which tie the topics to real-world phenomena. The links can serve as pre-lab assignments to introduce each investigation. The Research Question and Predicted Outcome sections are incorporated to engage student interest and provide a meaningful purpose for the investigation.
Note that these experiments challenge students to develop their own experimental procedures and record their data without pre-made data tables. Students are directed to write their own conclusions in response to research questions and to design their own extensions to the included experiments. This set of experiments complements guided-inquiry and Modeling Instruction™ classrooms.
An expansion of Human Physiology Experiments, Human Physiology Experiments: Volume 2 encourages students to investigate the physiology of the cardiovascular, muscular, respiratory, and nervous systems. The 15 experiments in this lab book include in-depth investigations for circulatory and cardiac physiology, respiratory physiology (including spirometry), complex reflexes, muscle physiology, biofeedback, and exercise physiology. Additionally, Human Physiology Experiments: Volume 2 includes experiments that help students explore the relationships between organ systems.
Experiment setup is minimal—students are collecting data in minutes.
Human Physiology Experiments contains 14 experiments designed to encourage students to explore the physiology of various human organ systems. This lab book provides instructions for data collection with Vernier Graphical Analysis™ and Go Direct® sensors only.
