Island 5 Fischertechnik- Optics: Microscopes and Teloscopes
Microscopes and Teloscopes
Fischertechnik Optics Kit
The planetary model provides a visual explanation of the phases of the moon as well as solar and lunar eclipses. Optical lenses with different focal lengths, mirrors, LED light barriers, and a large number of parts allow POP students to build a microscope, magnifying glass, telescope, and periscope. The sundial can be used to tell the time. The model uses fiber optics to explain what a total reflection is, and how light can be used to transmit data. This educational construction set gives POP students an in-depth look at the world of optics and light.
Key Learning Objectives at this Island:
-
Research optical phenomena and experiment with light.
-
POP students will understand the key points refraction, reflection, light and shadows, fiber optics, and optical illusions.
-
POP students will understand how lenses work with different focal lengths, LEDs, mirrors, fiber optics, LED light barriers, and much more.
-
POP students will build a microscope, magnifying glass, telescope, periscope, sun dial, Morse telegraph, planetary model, and much more.
-
Deepen and practice project and group collaboration.
