I have been using the Vernier Interface to teach Workshop Physics at the
high school level.  In this mode, I have used the Geiger Counter,
Temperature Probes, Motion Detector, Force Probe and Photogate.  I have
also used the Microphone Amplifier for Sound projects.  We have used data
logger for a special project with a varying voltage.

This summer the PTRA program will be developing an entire module dependent
on the use of the Universal Lab Interface.  I will be directing this
project and working with several other people.  This module will hopefully
be offered across the country next year.

It's a great tool.  I keep discovering more and more ways to use it for
projects.

Workshop Physics is a wonderful piece of curriculum.

If you would like more detail on any aspect,  I will be glad to answer your
questions
