| Title | Circuit Activity 2 Series & Parallel Circuits (Inquiry Based) |
| Description | The students will use the simulation to learn the goals through an inquiry approach. This lab uses the simulation and lab equipment both. This is the second of a series of three labs. Learning Goals: Students will be able to: Discuss basic electricity relationships in series and parallel circuits & Analyze the differences between real circuits and the simulated ones & Build circuits from schematic drawings & Use a multimeter to take readings in circuits & Provide reasoning to explain the measurements in circuits. |
