Teacher Tips #40

Closed pixelzoom closed 1 month ago

pixelzoom commented 8 months ago

This issue will capture things that should be included in teacher tips.

pixelzoom commented 8 months ago

[x] Per https://github.com/phetsims/faradays-electromagnetic-lab/issues/30#issuecomment-1877833000, include something about the direction of electrons vs the direction of conventional current, see also #136

arouinfar commented 8 months ago

[x] Using alt input to move the magnet at a constant speed, #25
[x] Query Parameters/Preferences:
- [x] #23
- [x] #24
- [x] #27
[x] Compass needle behavior, including the immediate alignment when B >= 10 G, https://github.com/phetsims/faradays-electromagnetic-lab/issues/67
[x] There is no resistance in the model. #117, #118, #119

[x] generator.turbine.dragFactorProperty is used to simulate drag ("back EMF") on the turbine caused by the pickup coil. Discussed more in https://github.com/phetsims/faradays-electromagnetic-lab/issues/11.

[x] In https://github.com/phetsims/faradays-electromagnetic-lab/issues/10#issuecomment-1960548641, @kathy-phet noted:

I noticed that the field meter has a similar issue in that it appears to be "in front" of the magnet and electromagnet, but measures the inside of it. I currently has exactly the behavior of the Java sim and as I thought through what would happen if it was in the "same layer" as the compass that seemed more problematic than not. So I guess for the teacher tips, just note that it is "magical" and "measuring in the center plane" or something like that?

FEL Teacher Tips are complete, but may need minor revision as we get closer to publication. I'm holding off on the derivative sims to avoid propagating changes across multiple documents.

arouinfar commented 5 months ago

I decided to finish up the remaining Teacher Tips documents. Remaining TODOS:

[x] Add query parameter and info for #136
[x] Power Supply panels are draggable #163
[x] Calibration is optimized on a screen-by-screen basis #174
[x] Re-take screenshots if there are any visual changes
[x] Test all links to ensure they work (requires sims to be deployed to production)
[x] Upload final .pages and .pdf files to Sharepoint folder
[x] Upload .pdf to the website

I've updated the Teacher Tips for all sims in the suite. The remaining TODOs in https://github.com/phetsims/faradays-electromagnetic-lab/issues/40#issuecomment-2010259858 will be addressed once the sims are published.

pixelzoom commented 1 month ago

1.0.0 has been published for all 4 sims in the suite, so this issue can resume.

The Teacher Tips have been uploaded to the website, closing.
