Working with teachers to explore how mobile datalogging can help students to engage with science.

Plug back into Science was a year long knowledge transfer project between the University of Bath, ScienceScope Ltd and a range of high school science teachers in the UK South West. The broad aim of the project was to promote context-based learning by giving children the opportunity to become self-directed experimental scientists; gathering, analysing and drawing conclusions from data captured from within their own neighbourhoods.

Partners: ScienceScope & University of Bath.
