A classroom model of an electrical circuit, captured on film for your viewing delight.

nothing
Nooooo!
SciCast Notes:
It’s a little tricky to hear in places, what with the music being so loud, but that’s a problem the team share with Brian Cox. So that’s probably OK, then.
This is a good example of how to turn a straightforward classroom group demonstration into a film, relatively straightforwardly. Which isn’t to say there’s no work involved, of course, but it’s a commendably efficient use of time.

I do something similar with my classes. However, I really like the idea of matches to get energy transfer ideas across.
