Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A classroom sensor measures how full a bin is, then turns the readings into maths, science, and landfill-reduction investigations.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

The project combines a physical ultrasonic sensor with a classroom data workflow: readings move to the cloud, then appear as class-bin graphs, school averages, and longer-term trends. The homepage also provides teacher-oriented material, including a quick-start guide, three investigations, resource links, and curriculum links. Its stated audience is Year 5–6 education, and the site says the system uses no student data. A robot character is presented as a guide that encourages, celebrates, and interprets changes in the readings.
