Backwards Design
Course Objectives
 * Primary Objectives- By the next class period students will be able to:
 * Identify series connection of resistors
 * Identify parallel connection of resistors
 * Analyze series/parallel dc circuits


 * Sub Objectives- The objectives will require that students be able to:
 * Draw circuits
 * Identify electrical symbols
 * Get the sum of fractions
 * Get the reciprocal of a number
 * Use voltmeter and ammeter


 * Difficulties- Students may have difficulty:
 * Identifying what elements are in series and what elements are in parallel.
 * Using an ammeter.


 * Real-World Contexts- There are many ways that students can use this material in the real-world, such as:
 * Dissecting household circuits
 * Understanding how christmas lights work
