Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM)

Incorporating PASCO sensors into your school’s SHSM program enhances learning experiences in many different ways and helps students develop valuable skills for succeeding in their chosen career path.  Every school’s SHSM program is unique, but the requirement to engage students, and provide meaningful opportunities for growth is universal.

Here are some examples of how PASCO sensors can help your SHSM:

  • For Energy SHSMs: PASCO dynamics equipment & sensors demonstrate motion and electricity
  • For Environmental SHSMs: PASCO sensors monitor the environment, water testing & environmental investigations
  • For Agriculture SHSMs: PASCO sensors & software offer mapping with GPS/GIS functionality
  • Currently there are 19 different SHSM programs offered in Ontario.  Each SHSM ‘sector’ requires students to complete bundles of 8-10 courses in Gr. 11 / 12.
  • Most SHSMs recommend a SCIENCE course and our PASCO Sensors are already being used in many of these SHSM courses for hands-on learning.
  • PASCO wireless sensors are the best data collection tools for your lab. They are easy to use, low cost, and work with PASCO’s award winning SPARKvue software.
