Electrifiying Energy Teacher Resource Kit

Help students understand the basic principles of electrostatics, electric energy, electric circuits and electromagnetism.

With the Electrifying Energy Teacher Resource Kit, you have a comprehensive curricular unit for providing hands-on exploration of electricity and magnetism as called for in the Science Standards -- in the context of energy and energy transfer. Your students will examine the nature of electric energy, how electric energy is delivered and measured, and how electric energy is converted from one form to another.

Students use our Voltage/Current and Magnetic Field Sensors to measure voltage, current and magnetic field strength. Twelve investigations provide approximately 36 days of classroom activities.

Student Learning Objectives

Electricity:
  • Understand the terms voltage, current, energy, work, power, charge and resistance
  • Understand how a charged object performs work
  • Learn how to generate electricity
  • Understand the relationship between current, voltage and resistance
  • Learn how electric energy is related to electric work
  • Build both series and parallel circuits
Magnetism:
  • Learn how magnetism is related to electricity
  • Understand the various properties of magnetism
  • Learn how an electric motor works
 

Electronic Workbooks guide students through the inquiry process--including setup--so you can focus on the learning process.
