Class Presentation: Instructor leads class in demonstrating how to upload and look at example data using the COSM web interface. In the background, additional facilitators are uploading the SD cards with two weeks of logged data to COSM.

• Discuss:
• What do these numbers mean? what do these units mean? What is a "lot" or a "little", a high or low reading?
• What are numbers versus trends?

In Class Activity A:

• Students form groups and look at data from the example egg on COSM
• As other egg data comes online, students search for the egg that was in their house and look at their own data.
• Discuss how the class's eggs compare with each other.

In Class Activity B:

• Hand out a pre-printed google map of the Cypress Hills neighborhood.
• Students who had an egg in their home will approximately locate their house and put a dot on the map.

Class exercise: facilitator demonstrates how to add a location to the COSM feeds for each particular egg, using location data noted on the maps by the students.
