Boson - Conductivity Sensor - Input

The Boson Conductivity Sensor allows students to explore the conductive properties of different materials. By attaching objects to the sensor using alligator clips, learners can determine whether the materials conduct electricity. This module introduces key science concepts in a practical and hands-on manner, making it an excellent resource for integrating physics and chemistry into digital technology lessons.

Educational Benefits:

• Supports inquiry-based learning through scientific testing.
• Reinforces understanding of electrical conductivity and material science.
• Encourages hypothesis-driven investigation.
