MagLab: Alpha® launches students on a series of Expeditions and Explorations in search of a greater understanding of magnets and magnetism. As students complete each Expedition, they are encouraged to take advantage of suggested Excursions that link magnets and magnetism to mathematics, literature, language arts, geography, history, world cultures, art, and music.

MagLab: Alpha® was created by staff at the center for Integrating Research and Learning at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL), teachers, scientists and students to provide materials and experiences that expand students' knowledge of magnets, magnetism and related concepts beyond observable phenomenon.

The MagLab Alpha® Guidebook consists of 20 similarly-formatted Expeditions and 5 Explorations. Although each Expedition or Exploration can be used independently, it is recommended that MagLab: Alpha be completed as a unit.
