Air Quality Monitors

Middle and high school classes can borrow a set of air quality monitors for use with biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science or math classes. Initial lessons are provided to get the students exploring their own inquiry questions with the monitors.

A dashboard site allows the class to catalog and analyze their data as well as access data from other schools. Check out the project page.
