Using Vernier Probes: Events with Entry

On Friday we went out to various locations on campus and learned how to use the Vernier Temperature Probes.  For Academic Travel it will be important for us to be able to use the "Events with Entry" feature to collect our data.

Depending on which class you are in, we either went to five or six locations on campus. To compile the data, I only used the data from locations 1 - 5.

In case you've forgotten, here are the locations:

Location 1: Number 5 on the outdoor basketball court (uncovered)
Location 2: Number 15 on the outdoor basketball court (covered)
Location 3: The blue sign for "Library & Palestra"
Location 4: The grass in front of the Library
Location 5: The Swiss Flag pole

You have been emailed an Excel file with the data as well as a PDF with information about Data Collection & Processing for Internal Assessments and what you need to do with this data.  Read this information carefully.

A printed copy of this assignment is due at the start of class on Wednesday.  This will be assessed using IB criteria and will count towards your overall grade.
