PhET Inquiry - Bending Light
Title
|
PhET Inquiry - Bending Light |
Description
|
Students learn the law of reflection, and get a qualitative grasp of refraction. This style of inquiry uses the backward-faded scaffolding approach exemplified by Slater et al in "Engaging in Astronomical Inquiry," and borrows heavily from the format and language used in that book. |
