Title	Magnets-Introduction (Inquiry Based)
Description	The students will use the simulation to learn the goals through an inquiry approach. Learning Goals: Students will be able to 1.Predict the direction of the magnet field for different locations around a bar magnet and electromagnet. 2.Compare and contrast bar magnets and electromagnets 3.Identify the characteristics of electromagnets that are variable and what effects each variable has on the magnetic field strength and direction. 4.Relate magnetic field strength to distance quantitatively and qualitatively 5.Compare and contrast the fields of gravity and magnets qualitatively
