Science Cart

zoom

The mobile Science Cart incorporates a series of digital presentation tools linked to an on-board computer. This is loaded with a comprehensive series of science presentations and lessons that can also be supplied as SCORM-conformant packages that can be loaded on to your VLE.

Using these resources, teachers are able to provide engaging lessons in Biology, Chemistry and Physics from age 11 onwards in any suitable teaching space outside of the traditional science lab.

Each of the lessons supplied covers a specific topic area and provides essential theory, hands-on practical activities and continuous student assessment.

The inclusion of an optional digital camera and stand allows the teacher to conduct experiments that are projected for whole-class viewing. This can even include the examination and evaluation of specimens using the high-quality optical microscope with integral digital camera that is also available for use with the system. Trays of hardware for experiments can be stored securely in the cart, allowing the teacher to demonstrate activities to the whole group.

Student interaction can be provided by using an optional learner response system. This is compatible with the demonstration lessons we offer, allowing the teacher to present interactive and engaging science demonstrations that the whole class can participate in.

There are two options for the cart:

1. The cart can be supplied with its own integrated gas supply and gas tap, as well as a chemical- proof sink and water and waste system.
   
2. The cart can be supplied without water and gas services.

Active learning is known to be more effective than passive learning and we provide plenty of opportunity for hands-on experiments with the Science Cart and our science packs.
