This page from the Institute of Physics provides two tutorials and one lab designed to specifically address students' difficulties in understanding magnetic effects in terms of attraction of unlike poles and repulsion of like poles. The aim of this module is to provide diagrams to help students visualize this basic yet crucial aspect of magnetism. This resource is appropriate for learners who are struggling with a high school curriculum in electricity and magnetism.
This page is part of a robust collection from IOPSpark that presents findings from academic literature about the conceptions (and misconceptions) young people have regarding processes in the physical world. See Related Materials for a link to the full collection.
