Upcoming Webinars

Two Ways to Explore Newton’s Second Law with the Go Direct Motion Detector

Thursday, October 10
4:00–4:45 p.m. PDT | 7:00–7:45 p.m. EDT

Ready to propel your students’ understanding of Newton’s Second Law to new heights? Join Vernier physics experts Josh Ence and Fran Poodry as they demonstrate how to use the Go Direct® Motion Detector to bring this fundamental principle of physics to life in your classroom. In this webinar, we’ll explore two methods for investigating Newton’s Second Law: using a cart and fan system and employing a modified Atwood setup.

A Mole Lot of Fun: Chemistry Investigations from Avogadro’s Number to Electrodes

Tuesday, October 15
4:00–4:45 p.m. PDT | 7:00–7:45 p.m. EDT

Get ready for National Chemistry Week with Mole Day experiments! In this webinar, Vernier STEM experts Nüsret Hisim and Verle Walters will guide you through two key electrochemistry experiments that connect the mole concept to observable real-world phenomena and follow the principles of green chemistry. You’ll discover how to use Vernier tools to help your students visualize abstract ideas like Avogadro’s number and electron transfer, making these concepts more perceptible and relevant.

Knee-Jerk Reaction: Exploring Neuromuscular Reflexes

Tuesday, October 22
4:00–4:45 p.m. PDT | 7:00–7:45 p.m. EDT

Interested in gaining new strategies to help your students flex their knowledge of the human nervous system? Join Vernier biology expert and former educator John Melville, PhD, as he demonstrates a hands-on neuromuscular reflex investigation that can help you bridge the gap between theory and real-world observations. By measuring patellar reflex response time and muscle electrical activity, students can more easily visualize and analyze the rapid communication between the nervous and muscular systems.
