Experiments Library

All experiments include electronic DataStudio configuration files. All content posted on the Experiment Web assumes a basic familiarity with PASCO equipment and DataStudio software. Therefore procedures are summarized -- written for users who can easily access DataStudio features such as the Experiment Setup window. Less experienced users can use DataStudio's built-in Help menu and/or click on embedded links to view more detailed instructions.

Click [Mac] or [PC] to download experiment files. These are provided in PDF or HTML, for experiment notes, and DataStudio experiment files. You will need Acrobat Reader and DataStudio 1.7 or newer in order to use these files and Stuffit Expander, Winzip or similar to decompress encoded files.

Some PASPort experiments also include DataStudio Workbooks with a purpose, setup photos and detailed setup instructions, data collection instructions, and suggestions for conclusions and extension.

Separate experiment files are supplied for Science Workshop and PASPort equipment. Users of the original Science Workshop software are invited to upgrade to DataStudio Lite at no cost. DataStudio Lite will open configuration files and record user's data.

Alternatively, the original Science Workshop experiment libraries including 200+ experiments are available for download.

Many experiments are also available in printed form along with teacher notes and support materials. Ordering details can be found in the PASCO product Catalogue's
