High School Optics - Activity Kit

 

Optics                            Activity Kit

Concept based activity kit encourages creativity and tinkering among students aged 10-18 years. Activities are designed as per learning progression in the area of optics. Kit provides only key inputs to the students. Other material required to understand the concepts should be sourced locally or built with things around. This is purposely done to promote resourcefulness and a do-it-yourself approach. Activities are designed to visualize key laws from the textbook. These laws are otherwise explained as animation or lecture elsewhere. Kit enables students to perform 10+ activities. Video is provided as a reference for each activity.
