Magnetism
This page contains a wide range of resources to help teachers and students get to grips with these conceptually challenging areas of GCSE Physics. There are resources that will help teachers who are new to delivering GCSE Physics as well as materials that will appeal to established practitioners.
You will find
- Resources related to electromagnetism, electromagnetic induction, thermionic emission, electron beams and circuit electricity, including:
- revision materials that help students understand underlying concepts and applications
- quizzes
- suggested activities
- resources to support practical work
- interactive teaching materials
- information on how some electrical and electromagnetic devices work.
- Links to websites and resources matched to GCSE Physics specifications and produced by the Institute of Physics and other organisations. Some of these sites are very comprehensive and support a wide range of topics and activities; others are more specific.
Specification links: AQA P3 13.8 and 13.9, Edexcel 360 P3 Topic 5, OCR Gateway P5, WJEC P3.1 and P3.2.
If you cannot find what you want in the listed resources, enter keywords from your specification in the Search box on the right. Reduce the number of ‘hits’ by using inverted commas to search for phrases.
