Electricity

I thought the electric labs today were very useful! Everything that we did today could easily be used in a high school classroom. The graphs were a great way of showing how the variables are related to each other. Of the topics that I cover in Physics, electricity is my weakest. Mainly because I usually do it at the end of the year and it is usually covered in a condensed form. The activites were very simple, yet were great for explaining how series and parallel circuits work. Using the graphs was a very good representation of how voltage and current are related.

  1. Do you go into complex schematics with your physics students? I always find it quite the challenge.
