Teaching Advanced Physics: Electric current
From the Institute of Physics, these resources are split into topics and each topic is subdivided into a number of learning episodes. Each episode represents a coherent section of teaching which is typically one or two lessons. The topics covered include: * Electric current and charge carriers * Electrical resistance, thermistors and LDRs * Series and parallel circuits * Kirchhoff’s laws * Electrical energy and power (direct and alternating current) * EMF and internal resistance * Capacitors, capacitance, energy and discharge * Semiconductor devices

Episode 113: Preparation for Series and Parallel Circuits Topic
This series of activities, from the Institute of Physics, explores ideas about electricity applied to circuits that have real applications. Each learning episode is self-contained and tackles a particular topic. In this series the topics are:
Episode 114: Components in...
Episode 114: Components in Series and Parallel
Produced by the Institute of Physics, this learning episode helps students to investigate the effective resistance of circuits with components in series and parallel. The activities include demonstrations, worked examples and student investigations.
...Episode 115: Energy and Power
In these activities, from the Institute of Physics, the concept of electrical power is explored. Students find that the energy transferred by an electrical component depends on the potential difference, current and the time for which it operates.
...Episode 116: Using Energy and Power Equations
Part of a suite of activities produced by the Institute of Physics, this resource helps students develop their competence in using equations relating power and energy, in an electrical context.
