The Invention of Faraday Cage
Students demonstrate how Faraday's cage work by building their own electroscope. In this physics instructional activity, students explain how Faraday's cage work. They cite several applications of this principle in the real world.
Curated OER
How is Lightning Formed
Students research lightning paying particular attention to how it is formed, where it is most likely to occur, and how most people struck by lightning survive.
Curated OER
Stock Character Lesson Plan
Students examine multiple types of media in order to properly define different types of character that include static, stock, and dynamic characters. They respond to the question of finding someone they respect. They give examples of...
