This is a free internet-based module for high school physics on the topic of electrostatics. The lesson begins with a short video clip of a car catching on fire during refueling. The driving question of the unit is: what caused the fire and how can we use a knowledge of electrostatics to prevent these accidents? The module provides students with modeling experience, digital note-taking, and guided investigation. It blends hands-on labs with computer simulations and interactive tutorials.
