Checking Out LabQuests
Teachers are already checking out LabQuests to use in their classrooms. Remember, we have 13 LabQuests plus the six sensors (DO, Turbidity, Conductivity, pH, Temperature, and GPS) for EACH unit. I have put a link to the left of this blog with a spreadsheet that will tell you where the LabQuests are and when they will be back. There is also a "check-out" policy I would like for you to read before checking out the LabQuest units. If you have any questions, you can email me at wpmckee@gmail.com.

May 5
We will not need to bring LabQuests and probes to class this week (May 5). You will need your Samsung Galaxy Tab with you.
On May 12, please bring the Tab, the LabQuest and charger. We will have an update for you that will allow you to install nearly 500 labs to your LabQuest making paperless labs possible. At the follow-up session to be scheduled, Pat will show you how to create your own labs and upload them to the LabQuest device.
