Image Formation by Lenses

The Image Formation by Lenses Toolkit provides teachers with standards-based resources for designing lesson plans and units that pertain to such topics as refraction of light by lenses, formation of images by lenses, characteristics of images formed by lenses, and the mathematics of lenses. The Toolkit is supported by Lessons 5 and 6 of the Refraction and the Ray Model of Light chapter at The Physics Classroom Tutorial.

Each toolkit can be viewed in three different ways.
