The Monitor Your World app works in conjunction with a sensor to monitor the humidity, temperature, and ambient light of your surroundings. This enables students to evaluate the environment near their schools, enabling them to collect and upload their own data and pictures. Students use the Monitor Your World app to learn about the various characteristics of their local environment. Teachers work with students to explain how these properties affect the surroundings in various ways.
