Educational site provides activities to compliment a unit on the reflection of light. Offers challenge activities that are designed to motivate and stimulate interest in the classroom.

A collection of intermediate experiments, for students aged ten and up, for exploring the magnification, reflection, and refraction of light.

Students learn in this lesson about light intensity and the units used to measure it, the reflection of light, and how the amount of light can be increased using more lightbulbs.

A four-lesson tutorial on the reflection and the ray model of light. These complete tutorials include informational text, interactive activities, animations, and quick, interactive comprehension questions.

In this activity, students can use a Light Sensor to measure reflection values from paper of various colors and compare these values to reflection values of aluminum foil. They will also calculate percent reflectivity.

In this science lab, students work with a partner and complete four investigation activities that experiment with reflection using plane mirrors.

A video and a short quiz on the properties of light.

Through illustrated examples, students explore the physics phenomenon of total internal reflection when light travels through several medium boundaries.

The behavior of light waves is introduced and discussed. Also, polarization, color, diffraction, and interference are introduced and discussed thoroughly as supporting evidence of the wave nature of light.

Through diagrams and illustrations, students explore how images are formed through the physics law of reflection.

This probeware version of the Skills Practice Lab Brightness of Light from the chapter Light and Reflection uses a light probe to measure the intensity of light at different distances from a light source.

In this illustrated physics tutorial, students investigate the connection between light reflection and light refraction.

Experiments and activities for investigating the science of light, as well as in-depth explanations of some of the light principles.

This article discusses the historical figures who contributed to our understanding of the nature of light, x-rays, Quantum ElectroDynamic (QED) theory, and so on.

In this series of interactive physics tutorials, students will focus on the wavelike nature of light.

At this college physics department site, the polarization of light is explained and illustrated as well as the primary methods of polarization (scattering, reflection, and refraction).

This unit helps students learn to apply the concept of solar energy conservation. They are introduced to angles and their effect on the amount of light reflected, and they will also design, construct, manipulate, critique, evaluate and...

A physics tutorial focused on the behavior of light as it relates to concave mirrors.

An interesting and engaging activity where pupils work in groups with a laser pointer and small mirrors. They must use their knowledge of angles of reflection to bounce the laser beam from mirror to mirror until it hits a target at the...

Students learn two rules of reflection as it has to do with concave mirrors. These two rules will greatly simplify the task of determining the image locations for objects placed in front of concave mirrors.

Students explore this simple physics principle: In order to view an object, you must sight along a line at that object; and when you do light will come from that object to your eye along the line of sight.

Lesson 3 of this tutorial on refraction is on concave mirrors. Content that is covered includes the anatomy of curved mirrors, reflection of light and image formation, ray diagrams, image characteristics for concave mirrors, plus more.

Discover how light reacts when it strikes mirrors which are placed at right angles to each other.

Illustrated examples and practice problems included in this tutorial help students discover how light rays react in multiple mirror systems.
