ATLAB offers you the data collection and analysis tools of American manufacturer PASCO scientific, which has been successfully operating worldwide for over 50 years. Their advantages are simple and intuitive operation, robustness, progressiveness, and support of different hardware platforms.
"Why Choose PASCO?Modern tools and technology are necessary for student success in science. And deciding who should deliver those solutions can be a daunting task. But we at ATLAB feel that no one combines innovative, easy to use products with world-class support like PASCO
Today teachers and students in more than 100 countries use PASCO solutions. PASCO’s complete program support includes custom implementation planning, standards alignment, curriculum integration, and systemic professional development."
" Preferred Partner for STEM Education"
Delivering Digital Content, Modern Technologies, and Professional Development
SPARKvue Software. Cross platform software for Mac & PC with free apps for iOS, Chromebooks and Android tablets and smartphones. This is our general use, intuitive software for data collection and analysis. For physics/engineering applications using computers we also offer PASCO Capstone software.
Our growing line of Wireless Sensors. Currently we offer Temperature, pH, Force/acceleration, Pressure, Conductivity, Light, Voltage and Current with The Wireless Carbon Dioxide Gas Sensor to be announced shortly and available in the next few months. They are low cost, don't require an interface or other equipment, are easy to use and feature in-app pairing, cross platform support and logging mode for long term experiments.
The Wireless Spectrometer. It has it's own free, standalone software and has numerous applications in chemistry, biology and even physics.
The Smart Carts. PASCO created the first dynamics carts for the classroom and now they've taken the next leap forward with the Smart Cart. It features on board sensors including a wheel encoder for measuring position, velocity and acceleration, a 100 N load cell to measure pushes, pulls and collision forces, a 3-axis accelerometer to give acceleration in any direction and the resultant acceleration and a 3-axis gyro for measuring rotation. All of this information is transmitted wirelessly and the Smart Cart can be used on our tracks or any other surface.
PASCO Teacher Guides
Inquiry-based manuals designed for teacher and student success
Our teacher guides support NGSS and are standards-based and STEM- and Common Core-focused. Each guide contains a detailed teacher manual, complete with guided-inquiry lab activities, background materials,tips, suggested answers, and much more. Student handouts (editable Word document) and full teacher edition (PDF) are also included in an electronic version.
PASCO Advanced Teacher Guides
Suitable for advanced-level, AP®, and IB® courses*
Our advanced-level teacher guides cover the new standards set by the College Board. They are designed to address specific learning objectives and science practices. The manuals include sample data for initial investigations as well as a number of inquiry possibilities, answers to analysis and synthesis questions, a rubric for assessing student inquiry, teacher tips and lab preparation information.
PASCO Scientific has been designing, developing, and supporting innovative teaching and learning solutions for K-12 and higher education since 1964. As the world leader in wireless datalogging technology, software, and curriculum, PASCO transforms science education by promoting science inquiry and 21st century readiness skills. Today teachers and students in over 100 countries use PASCO solutions on their own devices for physics, biology, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, as well as programming and robotics.

PASCO’s Solutions for Physics
In the Physics classroom of today, inquiry-based, handson activities must combine with technology designed for education to keep students engaged and increase science literacy. PASCO’s STEM-based Physics solutions include topics such as mechanics, electricity and magnetism, optics, thermodynamics, waves, and more.
In the following Physics section, you will find instructional resources, plus a wealth of classroom applications.
Four essentials for Physics you can’t do without!
MatchGraph!™ App
for Windows®, Mac®, and iPad®
This software helps students to interpret position and velocity graphs while making a game of it!
With PASCO’s new state-of-the-art graphing app, you can engage your students with a kinesthetic experience that is centred on motion. Students gain a deeper understanding of how to interpret graphs by watching their motion graphed in real time.
