My Project

Have you ever watched high school students struggle through using a triple beam balance? It is not fun. Having these scales would be a time-saving tool for my students and allow them to focus more on their lab activities rather than spending all the time trying to zero at the balance or find one that isn't broken.

At my school, not all students have phones.

Having a class set of calculators would allow all students to engage equally with the chemistry lesson without feeling pressure from not having a phone.
