INTRODUCTION:
Photosynthesis is the process of producing food in form of glucose from the reaction
between carbon dioxide and water which carried out by the green plants or some of the
organisms in the present of sunlight. This process in undergo in plants and generally it
involves the green pigment in the leaf called chlorophyll and the product that will produce are
glucose (for plant food and oxygen) as a by-product. Now, the application of data logger in
this process will shows the effect on light and temperature for the rate of photosynthesis. This
set of data logger will consists of a data logging interface and a light sensor. The sensor will
take the measurement of the light during the process of photosynthesis. Then, most of this
data loggers are connected and supplies with the computer software so that data can display
directly during the experiment. The advantages that having this data logger are the practical
work can be conducted easily and the understanding about photosynthesis is better because
the students can learn the simplest way how to conduct an experiment and to get the result.
However, it will course some students will having a difficulty in relating the science concepts
to the microscopic and symbolic system representations.
ENGAGE:
Engage is a way to involve the students in the activity that the teacher make. The activity are
such like set induction, practical or a presentation about some topic.

Sooksalee, S., Tho. J. and Britton, N. (2008), demonstrated this experiment to see
how the light will influence the rate of photosynthesis on the Elodea sp. Based on this
experiment, they concluded that the student should be expected to understand the process of
photosynthesis that happen, the reactants that are involve and the product that will produce.
Moreover, the students should remember or recall the reaction and develop the reaction into a
symbol of equation. At what levels of light that the rate of reaction will be affected?
Photosynthesis known as the process of making glucose for the plants. This process
involve the present of sunlight or light and the organelle in the leaves. The energy from the
sunlight are converted into the chemical energy in order to produce a glucose and oxygen. In
addition, the student also be able to write the equation of photosynthesis. Do the equation will
contribute to the understanding of the students towards photosynthesis process. The following
