Introducing Electricity at KS3 with Physics Partners RK298 / A163
Summary
Electricity is a challenging concept to teach. Concepts like potential difference and current are incredibly abstract – these ideas are novel and not easily linked to the concrete world. One common student misconception is that current is used up when it passes through a component. It is important that models are carefully chosen to deal with such misconceptions. This workshop will demonstrate several successfully used models and will also introduce the 'colouring voltages' technique, which is a new way of analysing circuits.
