Subsection 7.1 / Content in preparation
Sources and applicators
A place for the field-generating devices and applicators selected for the course.
This is a section plan, not a completed lesson. Explanations, answers, figures, and interactive activities will be added as the course develops.
The chapter follows the instructor’s outline. These subsection groupings are a starting point and will be refined with the detailed course materials.
A question to begin with
Which source geometry and operating quantities define a device’s intended field?
This opening question will guide the future lesson; its explanation and answer are still to be developed.
The learning journey
The same question → exploration → explanation approach as the working example. Expand a step to see what will be developed here.
2Build the ideaPlanned
Develop the concepts in the scope above with a clear explanation and an annotated visual. Define the quantities, units, and assumptions.
3Make a predictionPlanned
Add a focused prediction question before the activity, with answer choices and explanatory feedback for each choice.
4Explore the modelPlanned
Build a topic-specific interactive visual or guided activity, with clearly defined controls, observations, and model limits.
5Explain the resultPlanned
Connect the observations to the underlying concepts and, where useful, a worked example. Answer the opening question.
6Put it into practicePlanned
Add questions and answers that test transfer to a new situation, with hints and explanations rather than only a score.
7Take it with youPlanned
Summarize the key ideas, add a retrieval question, and connect this section to the next topic.
Go further: mathematics, code, and references
Where useful, this section will include a worked derivation, a computational companion, reviewed references, and accessible media. These will be chosen for the topic when the lesson is authored.
