Electric Field Hockey Simulation Homework A gold star indicates high-quality, inquiry-based activities that follow the PhET design guidelines.



Title Electric Field Hockey Simulation Homework
Description This homework covers the topic of electric charges and Coulomb's Law through the Electric Field Hockey SIM. It consists of one question with several parts. This activity was developed in 2003 before most of our research with PhET interviews and before we developed the Inquiry Guidelines. Therefore, the lessons are more directed then we would now recommend. Also, this activity was used in a course with very large enrollment (200+), so many questions are constrained to being multiple choice or numeric for computer grading. Please email phethelp@colorado.edu if you are a teacher and would like a solution key.
