Activities
The HTML formatted activities are supplied on a CD-ROM and can
be easily installed to the Science
Workroom. Activities opened within the Science Workroom
are directly linked to the data capture and analysis software. The recording
parameters are automatically configured so setup mistakes are virtually eliminated.
