Peer reviewedVanderkooy, John; Lowe, June – American Journal of Physics, 1995
Presents a demonstration designed to illustrate Faraday's, Ampere's, and Lenz's laws and to reinforce the concepts through the analysis of a two-loop magnetic circuit. Can be made dramatic and challenging for sophisticated students but is suitable for an introductory course in electricity and magnetism. (JRH)

Peer reviewedBentley, Anne K.; Crone, Wendy C.; Farhoud, Mohammed; Ellis, Arthur B.; Lisensky, George C.; Nickel, Anne-Marie L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2005
An experiment that highlights the role electrochemistry plays in the fabrication of nanoscale structures is presented. The movement and alignment of the nickel nanowires were observed, when manipulated using magnetic fields through the lens of an optical microscope using common magnets to alter the applied magnetic field.

Direct linkFay, T. H.; Mead, L. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, 2006
The paper discusses an elementary spring model representing the motion of a magnet suspended from the ceiling at one end of a vertical spring which is held directly above a second magnet fixed on the floor. There are two cases depending upon the north-south pole orientation of the two magnets. The attraction or repelling force induced by the…

Olitsky, Stacy – Science Education, 2007
This paper explores both the obstacles and the possibilities for students developing identities associated with science by engaging in solidarity-building classroom interactions. Data come from ethnographic research conducted in a diverse eighth-grade urban magnet school classroom in which the teacher taught out of field for part of the year.…

Berger, Sandra – Understanding Our Gifted, 2007
Following on the heels of charter schools, virtual high schools have gradually become more common. Typically, they are technology-driven magnet schools with competitive admission. Many are free and actively recruit traditionally underserved students. Parents of highly gifted children often cobble together academic solutions--a college class here,…

Sobel, Morton J.; Moon, Michael J. – 1979
This document is a compilation of the presentations made at the Conference on Magnet Schools for Desegregation held in the Fall of 1977. It provides an overview of many types of magnet school programs and their degree of success. Presentations include a paper on the Federal government and magnet schools; some promises and cautions regarding magnet…
