OPTICS FOR KIDS: Science and Engineering by Bruce Irving, Optical Research Associates A NOTE TO PARENTS AND TEACHERS: Elementary school children might enjoy this quick look at some optical basics, especially if coupled with some experiments from the Optics Discovery Kit from OSA or some creative play with the commercial program ZAP! . There's also a bit of a pep talk on science and engineering as careers. Please share this with your kids! Please note also that ORA does not sell lenses or other optical "hardware" for experiments. A local science or children's museum may sell simple lenses, prisms, mirrors, etc. Edmund Scientifics is a good source for all sorts of optical and other scientific items for experimenters. Laser pointers are now quite inexpensive and can be used for optical experiments with colored filters, lenses, and optical fibers. You can buy laser pointers at office supply and electronics stores. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH LASERS.

Visit the Molecular Expressions Website Galleria Photo Gallery ... Home Table of Contents Science, Optics and You is a science curriculum package being developed for teachers, students, and parents. These activities are designed to promote the asking and answering of questions related to light, color, and optics. The program begins with basic information about lenses, shadows, prisms, and color, leading up to the use of sophisticated instruments scientists use to help them understand the world. The goal of Science, Optics and You is for students to acquire the skills with which they can do microscopic analysis of a variety of samples in multiple ways. Use the links below to navigate to featured subsections of this Website. Timeline in Optics - A summary of important events in optics, microscopy, astronomy, and the physics of light and color. Spanning from prehistory to the beginning of the twenty-first century, the timeline places each discovery, invention, theory, and development into a larger context of the world and its history. Find out when Halley's comet was first observed, how Christopher Columbus caused the moon to go dark, and who really invented the light bulb. Pioneers in Optics - Since the early days in Alexandria when Euclid described the laws of reflection in Optica , the science of optics has fascinated and challenged society's most brilliant minds. Some have made it possible to reach for the stars, while others have helped unveil a microscopic realm on Earth. Tribute is paid to these heroes through brief biographies that acknowledge their tremendous accomplishments and how they have affected civilization.

20. Introduction (Univ of Florida). A sample electronic lecture or worksheet. http://www.phys.ufl.edu/~selman/Demo1.html

Introduction This is a sample electronic lecture or worksheet. We have chosen optics as a subject because we feel that it is most accessible to a wide audience from the elementary school level to the college level. Because of its graphic nature, it is easy to visualize and ideally suited for the World Wide Web. There is also a do-it-yourself laboratory experiment , which covers the same material as this worksheet. Although the internet greatly enhances the availablility and accessibility of this material, there is no substitute for good old-fashioned work in learning the material. When you go through the lecture take time to make some notes. Have some blank paper, a pencil, and a ruler handy because you will be asked to do some exercises. Also, when I ask a question, stop and think about it before you go onto the next page. Enjoy! Please send any questions or comments to me at the address shown below. To see the evolution of this web material into a multimedia course go to the PHY3054 Home Page You may also download a zipped archive of these files.
