Abstract
In this study, we explore the use of a low-cost air quality monitor as an experiment within a first year undergraduate statistics setting. The aim is to enhance student engagement and to provide a basis for both individual and group assessments. A pilot, during the summer months-of June-September 2023, involved 52 volunteer students who collected indoor and outdoor air quality data. The students shared their data and analytical insights. “Fun/enjoyment” was frequently mentioned in student feedback, suggesting this practical approach may improve student engagement.
Plain Language Summary
The paper describes a case study of Open University students using inexpensive air quality monitors to measure particulate matter under indoor and outdoor conditions.
