Curriculum and Activity Guides

PHOTON / PHOTON2 Curriculum

The New England Board of Higher Education NEBHE) has developed instructional materials for a one-semester course in optics and photonics, “Introduction to Photonics” through a grant from the Advanced Technological Education program of the National Science Foundation. The course is algebra-based and can be used by high school and college programs teaching optics and photonics in science, electronics and engineering technology courses. To learn more, please visit the NEHBE web site at www.nebhe.org/photon2 or contact , senior director of the office of programs.

Students learn through hands-on demonstration

NASA Educator Guides

NASA's unique research and missions have allowed NASA Education to produce educational materials that engage student interest in science, technology, engineering and math. Our goal is to create educational materials that are educationally sound, scientifically accurate and matched to national education standards. To further the quality the education community has come to expect from NASA an expanded educational review process has been implemented for all newly developed materials to ensure they meet these goals. The online versions of the educational materials may be printed and copied as needed. Also, limited quantities of the published versions may be available through the NASA Educator Resource Center that serves your state. Valuable resources such as Optics - Light, color and their uses and Space Based Astronomy can be found on the NASA website.
