Course Objective

The aim of this course is to teach prospective physics teachers general topics in optics by using both ray diagrams and the wave model of light, and to help them conceptualize the applications of these concepts.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Describing fundamental concepts and theories of optics
2   Comprehending the concept of a ray and its applications in geometrical optics
3   Explaining phenomena in physical optics using the wave model of light
4   Explaining light-related phenomena in daily life using the principles of optics
5   Comprehending the features of optical devices and their technological applications

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

The homeworks will be assessed by directly adding to the mid-term scores. The exam dates will be indicated in the lesson plan. As the exam dates become definite, the previously announced dates may change.

Assessment Criteria

1. The basic principals of physics, the laws of nature and physical events will be assessed by exams and homeworks.
2. The physical events acquired in daily events will be assessed by homeworks.
