Igniting Curiosity: Engaging Students in Electricity and Magnetism Through Visually Instructive STEM Activities

This paper presents a series of hands-on workshops aimed at improving electricity education for high school students and teachers. The workshops address the common challenges of fear and misunderstanding surrounding the subject by providing interactive, visually instructive activities that connect theoretical concepts to real-life applications. Aimed at enhancing students' conceptual understanding and building their confidence, these workshops have proven to be engaging and effective across a wide range of age groups. The results from initial implementation indicate a positive shift in both students' and teachers' attitudes towards electricity education. Future directions include expanding these workshops globally, introducing teacher training components, and targeting specific focus groups, including various ethnicities, genders, and socio-economic backgrounds, to increase their impact and inclusivity. This initiative aims to provide accessible and sustainable solutions for electricity education in diverse educational contexts.
