# "Feel the Force: Magnetism" — Resources

## Knowledge

- [PhET: "Magnet and Compass" simulation](https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/magnet-and-compass)
  University of Colorado interactive sim with an official Vietnamese translation ("Nam châm và
  la bàn" — pick Tiếng Việt via the globe/language button). Use for: visualising magnetic field
  lines, N/S poles, flipping polarity. Primary interactive source for early lessons.
- [PhET sim standalone (HTML5)](https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/magnet-and-compass/latest/magnet-and-compass_all.html)
  Runs directly in the browser without the PhET site chrome. Use for: linking inside lessons.
- [Khan Academy: "What are magnetic fields?"](https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/magnetic-forces-and-magnetic-fields/magnetic-field-current-carrying-wire/a/what-are-magnetic-fields)
  Clear English article on fields and field lines; all magnets have both poles, like repel /
  unlike attract. Use for: learners comfortable reading English; backing citations.
- [IB MYP Sciences Subject Brief (ibo.org, PDF)](https://www.ibo.org/globalassets/new-structure/brochures-and-infographics/pdfs/myp-brief-sciences-en.pdf)
  Official overview of the four criteria. Criterion C "Processing and evaluating", max 8:
  i. present collected and transformed data · ii. interpret data and describe results using
  scientific reasoning · iii. discuss the validity of the hypothesis · iv. discuss the validity
  of the method · v. describe improvements or extensions. Use for: what each report section
  must demonstrate.
- _Sciences for the IB MYP 4&5: by Concept_ (Hodder), Figure 2.25
  The coursebook the assessment cites for the set-up diagram. Print source, no stable URL.
  Use for: the apparatus diagram (lab stand, micrometer, magnet over balance).

## Gaps

- No quality Vietnamese-language explainer of MYP Criterion C lab-report writing found yet;
  the lessons themselves fill this gap. Re-check periodically.
- The learner's real group raw data (balance readings per distance) — required before the data
  processing lessons can exercise the actual numbers. Currently using labelled practice data.
- A Vietnamese-native physics community fit for a MYP-level learner — not yet researched.
