INSTRUCTIONAL SOFTWARE
I will then give a brief description of how they will use the protractor in the software then transfer that information to
their graph.
Students will then fill out graphs showing the angles of the reflection and refraction with a top known medium and a
bottom known medium.
I will then pause here to give students a chance to fix their graphs so that they have something that is accurate for the next
task in their lab.
Based on the made graphs, students will then explore the different mediums that are known to try and determine what the
medium is that is labeled as unknown.
At the end of the class students will then have a chance to discuss their findings and argue their reasoning as to why they
think they are right with what the unknown medium is.
Some discussion topics that I may bring up could be:
- What are some of the effects on the direction the light goes with different mediums.
- What observations can we make with how the angles change as the light bends with the different mediums.
- Based on your observations what are the mystery materials and how can you argue your point.
Materials:
