Project-Based Learning: Learners in pairs construct a basic electric motor and discuss its operation. Draw and discuss the principle of a moving coil galvanometer. Discuss the factors that affect the current sensitivity of the galvanometer. Provide equitable access to resources and opportunities. Assessment (2.3.2.AS.3). The document marks these depth-of-knowledge levels for this indicator: Level 4 Extended critical thinking and reasoning.
