EveryDay Science: Electricity Part 6

In this last part of our Electricity Show, we learn more about the Fort Collins Trolley and how it actually uses the principles of electricity, circuits, conductors and insulators to run!

EveryDay Science: Electricity Part 5

In this edited segment, we take a look at the history of the Fort Collins Trolley Cars.

In the Physics Teaching Labs @ CSU

Every year at the end of the tour we come back to Colorado State University and set up in the physics teaching labs for two weeks. Both CSU students and visiting groups of K-12 children get to experience LSOP here on campus.

EveryDay Science: Electricity Part 4

Claire and Madeline put everything they’ve learned together to figure out how we can use electricity to get a car to move. Charges flow from high potential to low potential through conductors.

EveryDay Science: Electricity Part 3

This week, our scientists use a pencil to literally draw an electrical circuit!

Namibia Teacher Workshop #3

The Little Shop of Physics in partnership with B2Gold is presented a series of workshops for teacher in Namibia in January 2016. Here’s a video that captures the spirit of our 3rd workshop.
