Example exercise: Electron exchange

'Act out the exchange of electrons:

  • all, stand in a line
  • form pairs of two
  • determine who is the proton and who is the (valence electron))
  • orbit!
  • i push one valence electron in the beginning of the line out of its orbit, becoming a free electron
  • free electron bounces agains nearby valence electron, replacing its position, become a valence electron again while setting free the previously valence electron
  • and it goes on....

Chaos scenario: set free multiple electrons in system: what happens? the free ones WANT to go to the positive protons! especially when their orbit is 'empty' or they have an excess in (negatively charged electrons)

Group exercise: You are the Electrons

In the groups you formed during the last class:

  • Read https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/what-is-electricity (20mins)
  • Sketch out a choreography act out concepts 20 mins
  • Somehow make clear your different roles, who is the electron, who is a proton, etc (tshirts? signs? hats?)
  • With your group physically act out one (or more) concept introduced on the page, using your bodies (30mins)
  • document your choreography on your individual wiki pages!

things to act out, for example:

  • Conductor vs Isolator
  • Static Discharge
  • Current electricity
  • Resistors
  • Simple circuit (Illuminating a Light Bulb)
