Abstract

In the process of developing our modern understandingof electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism, ourpredecessors carried out experiments which are readilyreplicable in the classroom. Their understanding ofthe phenomena concerned followed a similar path tothat followed by modern students as they discover theconcepts of charge, conservation of charge, the natureof electric and magnetic fields and how electricity and magnetism interact. This paper willdescribe the historical development of these ideasincluding some of the experiments and discussionswhich can allow students to correctly form theseconcepts.
