Description:

For nearly two dozen e-Learning devices which have been or are being acquired by the SES Department, there are a number of built-in sensors (e.g. microphone, light sensor, gravity sensor, gyroscope, magnetic sensor and GPS etc.) and external sensors (e.g. CO and CO2 sensors, temperature and pressure sensors, infrared temperature sensor etc) and corresponding Apps which could be innovatively used for carrying out various scientific experiments in various science-related courses within and outside the classroom environment (especially for field trips). This proposal aims to develop some exemplary scientific investigation experiments (with worksheets and guiding questions) as based on those e-Learning devices and sensors for pilot implementation in selected courses.
