Description
This lab is fun and gets your students out of their seats and active! I sometimes will give out a prize to the student who can generate the most power in this lab (before they know how power is calculated…that leads to some very interesting proposed theories about how you can maximize power). Be sure to tell students to be careful on the stairs. A lab where students get injured is never a good lab!

I like the activity and recommend that modifications be made to adapt to virtual learning. Thanks!
This lab worked great in my AP Physics class. I set these up as stations around the room, although we had to go to the gym to do part with the stairs. My students loved seeing how much power they could generate and competing with one another.
Great resource! Thanks!
Have not implemented yet.
I hope when you do use it, you'll come back and change the rating based on what you DID experience when using it. That feedback would be very helpful to other teachers considering using the activity.

Thank you. Will be trying next week!
