The Field Logger
A classroom instrument that does one thing honestly: fair, automatic temperature and light readings at a spot, saved by station.
Why not just a thermometer?
A thermometer is fine for one reading. Science investigations need more: the same measurement taken the same way at every station, readings over time, and a record you can trust when the class compares results. That’s what the Field Logger adds.
- Fair by design. Every logger takes readings the same way, with a shade cup for air temperature.
- Live graph. Kids watch the line change as they move from sun to shade.
- Saved by station. Readings are stored with the station letter, ready for the class table.
- Nothing to install. Plug it into any computer and the readings open as a spreadsheet. No app, no account and no wireless, so there’s nothing for IT to approve.
What classes do with it
Find the hottest and coolest places in the schoolyard. Test which cup keeps a drink warm longest. Measure how much a tree’s shade cools the ground. Track a sealed jar ecosystem through the day. Every Field Logger set comes with investigations written in the Fieldbook format.
