Resource title / Teacher's and student's actions

[File]
Capacitance – introduction
Teacher: print the file Capacitance_introduction.doc and give it to the students; explain the lesson targets.

[Movie]
The capacitance of a conductor
Teacher: What is capacitance? Run animation to explain what capacitance is.

[Movie]
The unit of capacitance
Teacher: run animation to describe the notations of units of capacitance.

[Movie]
Capacitor
Teacher: run animation to describe a capacitor.

[Single activity]
Capacitor
Students: complete the activity.

[Simulation]
The capacitance of a plate capacitor
Teacher: How does the capacitance of a plate capacitor depend on the shape of the plates?

[Simulation]
The capacitance of a plate capacitor
Teacher: How does the capacitance of a plate capacitor depend on the distance between the plates?

[Presentation]
Capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric
Teacher: How do the amount of charge on the capacitor plates and the capacitance of the capacitor depend on the type of material between the plates?

[Presentation]
Capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric
Teacher: How do the potential difference between the plates and the capacitance of the capacitor depend on the type of material between the plates?

10.

[Description]
Dielectrics
Teacher: explain dielectrics: The substances used in the experiments are dielectrics. A dielectric is a material that does not contain free electrical charges, so it cannot conduct current.

11.

[Movie]
The capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric
Teacher: run animation to consolidate the knowledge gained during running the simulations.

12.

[Single activity]
The capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric
Students: complete the activity.

13.

[Movie]
Dielectric constant
Teacher: run animation to explain the dielectric constant.

14.

[Movie]
A decrease in the potential difference
Teacher: run animation to explain how the potential difference between the plates of a capacitor and the capacitance of a capacitor change after placing the dielectric between the plates.

15.

[Movie]
Ordering of dipoles
Teacher: run animation to observe what happens in a dielectric when an electric field is applied to the plates of a capacitor.

16.

[Movie]
Field strength in a capacitor with a dielectric
Teacher: run animation to explain the field strength in a capacitor with a dielectric.

17.

[File]
Capacitance – homework
Teacher: print the file Capacitance_homework.doc and give it to the students as homework.
