Highlights: 

From outdoor field studies to classroom experiments, the Gensci Labdisc gives students the freedom to explore science wherever curiosity leads. Its all-in-one design eliminates the need for multiple tools or complex setups, so teachers can focus on guiding inquiry instead of managing equipment. With cross-curricular applications, Labdisc helps students connect concepts through real-world data collection and analysis. The Gensci Labdisc has been optimized for general science classrooms and is ideal for K-8 or homeschool where you are looking for one device to tackle a little bit of every subject. 

Built-in Sensors:
Air Pressure, Ambient Temperature, Current, Distance, External Temperature, GPS, Light, Microphone, pH, Relative Humidity, Sound Level, Voltage, Universal Input

Compatible with additional external sensors including a Force Accelerometer, Respiration, Magnetic Field, Voltage, Current, Heart Rate, and CO2 sensors. 

Curriculum or Lesson Topics:

The Gensci Labdisc also comes complete with a MyStemKits Starter Plan allowing you to unlock up to five kits and their curriculum, including all compatible Labdisc lessons. Choose from hundreds of ready-to-3D print models, virtual simulations, and standards-driven lesson plans for K-12 STEM education such as:
