Experiment with accurate optical simulations - Virtual Labs: Light combines
easy-to-use experiments and highly accurate simulations with over 40
reproducible lab worksheets to help build an understanding of reflection and
mirrors, refraction and lenses, and colors.
Carefully sequenced levels of virtual experiments -- basic, extension, and
challenge -- provide a safe means to perform hands-on activities with lasers and
optical tools. Users can follow pre-designed labs to learn about particular
aspects of light, and then create virtual models of telescopes, cameras, and
other everyday devices.
Practice safe experimentation with highly accurate simulation software.
Observe and investigate the nature of light with virtual experiments.
Supports understanding of abstract concepts with schematic diagrams
Meets national standards for science education
Includes reference materials on light and related topics from the World
BookŪ Encyclopedia
