Description

When you purchase a Classroom Kit you will receive instant access to a series of accompanying digital lessons. Digital Lessons are accessed via the Street Science Digital Portal. 

LESSON OVERVIEW

With this brand new collaboration between Street Science and Queensland University of Technology (QUT), students explore the scientific concept of Energy Transformations through a series of electromagnetism investigations. Electromagnetism is the interaction between electricity and magnetism, and is one approach to generating electricity.  

This physics-based Classroom Kit will show students how both kinetic energy and magnetic fields can generate electricity, and how electrical fields can create magnetism. By the end of this hands-on lesson, students will be able to explain energy transfer and apply energy transformations to real world scenarios.

Experiments include:

  • Electromagnetism and the hand crank
  • Build an Electromagnetic train
  • Create a Spinning Copper Heart

Over Years 7 to 10, students develop their understanding of …

Science Year 9:

- how systems at a range of scales are shaped by flows of energy and matter and interactions due to forces, and develop the ability to quantify changes and relative amounts.

Science Year 10:

- how energy conservation in a system can be explained by describing energy transfers and transformations (ACSSU190)
