Abstract
This article demonstrates the use of a datalogger in conjunction with an oxygen electrode to monitor the generation of oxygen in photosynthesis. The rate of oxygen liberation from seaweed increases upon an increase in illumination intensity. These experiments provide hands-on experience to help students understand the principle of photosynthesis at secondary school level.
