Vernier's 25th Anniversary Stories

Beautiful Boyle's Law Curves

Greg Dodd, West Virginia

"Now, my students basically have one hand on a Vernier Gas Pressure Sensor and the other on a TI Handheld, and in five minutes or less they have a beautiful Boyle's Law curve."

"I love the fact that Vernier's labs aren't just recipe," Jensen adds. "They give you a great base for the experiments, yet you can edit the lessons quite easily to fit whatever your class might be doing, or might want to explore. And isn't that what inquiry-based learning is all about?"

An Innovative Force

Todd Leif, Concordia, Kansas

"My students have always enjoyed the easy, user-friendly interfaces of the products, and Vernier continues to make everything extremely affordable. Every day my students have neat new experiences with Vernier products. No other innovation in science education has made that possible."

Better Than The 'Good Old Days'

Jim Blattman, Winnemucca, Nevada

"I tell my kids, 'you have no idea how bad it used to be!'" Blattman laughs. "But now with the sensors, probes, and software from Vernier, things are simple and my students get good results, every time."

Getting the Right Chemistry

Stacey Howell, Layton, Utah

"The pH Sensors help the kids really see a titration curve," Howell notes. "Then they get very excited when we titrate a diprotic acid, and they can see the second titration curve. They truly understand that it takes this much more acid to create that reaction - it's a big 'wow' moment for them."

Long-Lasting Learning

Peter Fox, Victoria, Australia

"I've never had anyone come up to me and tell me how much they've enjoyed working from the textbook," laughs Fox. "But they do tell me that they really relate to the real-world experiments we do with the Vernier data-collection products."

Capturing Imagination on Video

Gary Bass, Australia

Vernier has made it possible to get real-time results, with an incredible degree of accuracy. And now with Logger Pro's video capture and synchronization capabilities, anything is possible. The only limits are your imagination.
