Conduct Science Experiments w/Computer

  • 03/01/96

PASCO Scientific's new Science Workshop 300 Computer Interface is suited to biology, chemistry, earth science and general science classes. The software is the same as the company's more powerful 700 interface for physics, easing transitions from different sciences.

The software lets students conduct a wide variety of experiments including fast-reacting experiments such as the exothermic reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid, or slow experiments such as the insulating properties of soil.

Data is displayed as it is collected, allowing students to see scientific relationships immediately. Data can be saved in either Mac or Windows formats, allowing for convenient review. PASCO Scientific, Roseville, CA, (800) 772-8700. WM
