It’s spring, and it’s a great time to get students outside to do some science. Need some ideas? Science teacher Brian Kaestner (St. Mary’s Hall in San Antonio) and Vernier Educational Technology Specialist Colleen McDaniel join us to discuss how they use Vernier sensors so students can locally measure the effects of climate change.
