Two-Way Switch
In this simulation, students explore how a Two-Way Switch controls the flow of electricity between different circuit paths. Learners can build a two-way switch circuit, create a staircase wiring system, and visualize both current flow and electron flow. By toggling the switches, students observe how electrical paths change and how LEDs respond in real time.
