Abstract
The goal of this module is to familiarize students with some of the basic principles of superconductivity. They will be introduced to the concepts of resistivity, zero-resistivity, Cooper-pairs, and a basic understanding of the Meisner effect. The module is readily adapted for students in grades 1-12. It was originally drafted for presentation to children aged 7-13 at the Rocky Mountain Camp for Dyslexic Children. The planned activities are therefore hands-on and do not rely on reading or writing skills.
