Teacher Resources
The Physics Classroom has been devoted to helping students, teachers, and classrooms since the 1990s. We are as passionate about that mission now as we have ever been. If you are a teacher of Physics or Physical Science, we encourage you to use our Video Tutorial with your students. And we also encourage you to consider the use of other resources on our website that coordinate with the video. We have listed a few below to help you get started.
Curriculum Corner, Electric Circuits Section
Our Curriculum Corner is composed of a collection of Think Sheets. Each one makes for a great component of any Lesson Plan. They work great for both independent practice exercises and cooperative group exercises. The following
Think Sheet makes a great complement to this video and the two that follow it:
Electric Potential Difference
Teacher Toolkits: Circuit Concepts
Try a Teacher Toolkit ... you might be very glad that you did. Each toolkit includes annotated links to vetted resources from across the web that we feel reliably support the specific topic. Give this one on circuit concepts a try.
Physics Simulation: Put the Charge in the Goal
This interactive simultation provides a game-like environment to explore charge interactions and the movement of charge within an electric field.
Physics Classroom Tutorial, Electric Circuits Chapter: Electric Field and the Movement of Charge
The content discussed in our videos is almost always present at the Tutorial section of our website. This particular page is the written version of our video. It makes a great reference for students. Use the trick many teachers use - link to it from your course page.
