Give your students a hands-on introduction to the technology and scientific concepts that power today’s agriculture and natural resource careers. Vernier biology expert Dr. Sara Tallarovic explores how sensor-based investigations can help students make real-world connections while developing problem-solving, critical-thinking, and data-analysis skills essential to careers across agriculture, food, and natural resources.
Whether you’re teaching CASE curriculum or developing your own lessons, we’ll cover practical, ready-to-use strategies that support student-led research and career exploration.
You will explore how to:
- Use Go Direct® sensors to support real-world investigations into soil monitoring, water quality, and weather patterns
- Integrate ready-to-use experiments from Agricultural Science with Vernier, including experiments on soil testing, plant growth, enzyme activity, and food energy
- Support student research and career exploration in areas like hydroponics, precision farming, sustainable agriculture, and water resource management
- Promote critical thinking and scientific analysis through student-led agricultural research projects that give students real-world experience that align with Agriculture and Energy & Natural Resources career clusters
