Electricity

Students are often frustrated when

studying electricity because they

cannot see the electrons involved,

and this leads to a variety of

misconceptions. One of the most

common ones is that electricity can

just “jump” from one point of

contact to another, and they don’t

realize that a continuous

conducting path is required.

Although the electrons cannot be

seen with any microscope,

zooming in on devices that use

electricity can show students that

conductors must always be present

for electricity to show. The picture

above shows the filament of a light

bulb, attached to its support wires.
