What is this new educational technology and how does it work? //=  //The Soil Moisture Sensor uses capacitance (which means: ////the ability of a system to store an electric charge) // //to measure the water content of soil. ////All you have to do to work it is to plug it into the ground, and you can see the percent of water in the soil. //    <span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; text-align: center; display: block;"> =//<span style="text-align: center; display: block; color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; font-size: 90%;">2.In what ways will intergrating this new technology into the curriculum help us learn? //= <span style="text-align: center; display: block; color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; font-size: 90%;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; text-align: center; display: block;"> //__<span style="text-align: center; display: block; color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; font-size: 90%;">The Soil Moisture Sensor can be used in the classroom in many ways. One of those ways is, right now in science class we are doing an experiment called "Wast Watch" and we are putting pieces of wood, plastic, a carrot and other stuff in an egg carton and putting soil over the top to see which ones decompose first. When we water them we can use this to see how much water we put in each pocket. With that information we can see how much water it may need or used to decompose. __<span style="display: block; font-size: 120%; font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center; display: block; color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif; font-size: 90%;">
