Guiding students towards an understanding of the electromotive force concept in electromagnetic phenomena through a teaching-learning sequence

In this work we present the application of design based research (DBR) methodology to conduct a systematic iterative study of the design and implementation of a teaching-learning sequence (TLS) on emf (electromotive force). This work is the final part of a broader study that started with the analysi...
