SCIENTIFIC PROCESSING

Say hello to our wonderful friends -- uncertainty, significant figures, scientific notation, ratios, graphing, base units, metric conversions, and dimensional analysis.   These are all processes that make measurements, and experimental data easier to understand and analyze.

What I've done on this page is linked the topics to the actual PowerPoint Presentation that I used in class.  To access them just click on the link to the topic and follow the directions to access the presentations.  If you don't have PowerPoint on your computer you need to download the PowerPoint Viewer that is available for free through Microsoft Office. 

PowerPoint Viewer download it for free

Teachers:  If you would like to save the files themselves so you can edit them and use them in your classrooms you will need to right click on the link and choose the "save target" option.
