Description

CPO Science features complete, coordinated active learning core curriculum programs rich in STEM connections and aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The Electric Motor helps students answer "Why do magnets behave as they do?", "How does an electric motor work?", and a series of other fascinating questions as they design, build, and test motors with different configurations of permanent magnets, electromagnets, and switching discs. The DataCollector or Timer and photogates provides precise measurements of motor speed, while the multimeter measures the current and voltage of each motor or generator configuration.

STEM concepts covered in Electric Motor include current, electric motors, electromagnetism, engineering design, magnetism, motor function, and voltage.

• CPO Science Link engages students and boosts understanding of key concepts with hands-on science and engineering investigations and innovative digital learning experiences
• All modules consist of investigations and teacher's guide, hands-on equipment, tablet-enabled learning, and online multimedia content with whiteboard resources
• Program for middle school or high school accommodates differentiated instruction and can be used to enhance any existing traditional or alternative curriculum
• Concepts covered meet STEM, Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), and Common Core State Standards Initiatives
• Electric Motor addresses MS-PS2-3, MS-PS2-5, HS-PS2-6, HS-PS-3-3, and HS-PS3-5 for NGSS performance expectations
