Excellent ideas for practical ways of teaching electricity and magnets. Some interesting new equipment and methods in order to show things that students often find difficult to see with older methods.
I learned how to perform some new exciting and interesting experiments to enthuse my pupils.
Found ideas for experiments really useful and it helped me understand the topic better

Really found all the practical ideas useful. It also helped me to understand things better e.g. about current in electric circuits
Having attended all four sessions I feel more and more confident about Physics and the practicals involved. Thanks again Phil!
The day was fantastic, lots of practical tips and ideas to make teaching more fun. I would definitely attend any future events at the physics factory! Thank you Phil and Sandy!
Excellent day, really useful!
I really enjoyed the ideas with the Van Der Graaf generator. Also the sweet model to illustrate series and parallel circuits was really thought provoking. Cheers Indev Bedi
