Wave Properties of Light Using 3-Dimensional Science
Participants will use patterns seen through the use of red, green, and violet lasers being shown at copper wires and strands of hair to learn about diffraction of light. Briefly learn how technology-mediated lesson study has helped rural science teachers collaborate to design 3 dimensional lessons.
Event Details:
Date: Friday, November 8, 2024 - 10:40 AM
Location: Ernst Morial Convention Center, Rm 393
Takeaways:
During the session, participants will shine lasers at copper wire and strands of hair to construct an explanation for how diffraction patterns can be used to make sense of the phenomena.
Speakers:
Rebecca Sansom (Texas A&M University: College Station, TX), Douglas Morris (Carbon High School: Price, UT)
