Standard: Show Content Tip
1c Students know electric currents produce magnetic fields and know how to build a simple electromagnet.
Holistic Rating: Moderate coverage of this standard.
| Investigation 4 in the "Magnetism and Electricity" module and pages 24-27 in "Science Stories" provide moderate coverage of this standard. |
Aspects that help student learning:
Students experiment with electromagnets. The science story on pages 24-27 is engaging and reinforces the concept that electromagnets can be turned on and off.
Aspects that do not help student learning:
Students do not experience that electricity flowing through a wire produces a magnetic field even if it is not coiled around a metallic object.
