Atmospheric Processes - Conduction
Learners explain the process of conduction using a molecular explanation, and explain how different materials conduct at different rates.
Curated OER
How Hot Is It?
Discuss the difference between conduction, convection and radiation of thermal energy, and complete activities with your class by investigating the difference between temperature, thermal energy and the heat capacity of different materials.
