STEM Labs: Conductivity & Colorimeter

Help me give my students a conductivity and colorimeter sensor for chemistry labs.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Heather Sexton's classroom raised $308

This project is fully funded

My Project

What I love about my students is their interest in hands-on learning. One of the best tools for hands-on learning in the science classroom is labs. Due to a lack of supplies and budget, I have limited resources for labs at my school. The conductivity and colorimeter sensors will allow us to do some really cool solutions labs, molarity labs, concentration labs, analysis of chemicals, and more. Students will be able to see the concepts they’re learning in action and get real experience measuring these values in a lab setting.
