Reflection >>Data Logger :)



From the practical lab, I have learned on how to use the Data logger. Each of group are given the two types of sensor which are temperature and humidity sensor. I start to use it by inserted the sensor on the switch and I can see that the data logger can be function automatically. But, sometimes it may be manually. Then, the data logger need to be set up and adjust the time and rate. It can gives us the reading of the rate of changing temperature and also the rate of changing humidity.

After I have used this data logger, I realize that this logger have the advantages. Data logger can stored the data and that data can transfer to a computer connected by cable. Then, the graph from the data can automatically plotted. Besides that, data logger have some form on-board intelligence which provide the user with diverse capabilities. Data logger also can acts as alarm while recording a minimum number of samples. It can record the data at very long intervals, without using a paper and can note when alarme condition is occurring.

From my opinion, I think data logging is a very modern ways in conducting an experiment in school. By using this application, it will makes the students to get the most precise results for every experiment that they conduct compared with the conventional ways. This will helps the students to understand the experiments based on the theory that they have learned before the do the experiment or practical.
