Science CSI (Concentrated Science Investigation) Kit
Vernier Software & Technology, Bodelin Technologies and Apple Computer have teamed up to design the Science CSI (Concentrated Science Investigation) Kit, which gives grade 5-12 students a new way to study science in the classroom. The kit includes Vernier’s pH conductivity and temperature probes, Bodelin’s ProScope handheld USB microscope and accessories, as well as specially designed CSI-themed curriculum from Apple. But instead of investigating dead bodies like the popular TV shows that the kit borrows its theme from, Science CSI (www.sciencecsi.com) lets students work backwards to figure out the mysteries behind real-world phenomena such as acid rain.
