Investigating the Environment with Data Logging

Data logging is the recording of data over time. It's used in school science experiments to record environmental or physical data. This might be for short bursts of time, for example measuring the acceleration of an object as it falls, or over longer periods of time, such as recording sound levels over a day or temperature or light levels over a week or more.

In this experiment, environmental data is logged each time a button is pushed. When data logging is completed, the data can be downloaded from the Microbit as a CSV file and displayed on a graph
