Light

=Physics=

//Key Concepts//
By the end of this course, students will: • evaluate the effectiveness of technological devices and procedures designed to make use of light, and assess their social benefits; • investigate, through inquiry, the properties of light, and predict its behaviour, particularly with respect to reflection in plane and curved mirrors and refractin in converging lenses; • demonstrate an understanding of various characteristics and properties of light, particularly with respect to reflection in mirrors and reflection and refraction in lenses.
