Phone Sensors

Students in fourth grade used phone sensors through the Arduino Science Journal app to gather data on their environment, such as light, movement, and sound, and then used that data to engineer a device. Students explored the physical phenomenons of waves through this maker experience and engineered their optimization device, whether a parachute, blackbox, or soundproof chamber, using the ASA Design Cycle. This is a great example of ASA student integrating math and science class together into an integrated STEM maker experience.
