Colors: Art, Science, Geometry, Technology

Under development...More coming soon...  Your patience is appreciated....  Have a great day!  Dr. J

Color can be used to engage students in science.  Here are some videos and ideas to get you started.

http://youtu.be/qtVKzgtWWu4 or http://www.khanacademy.org/cs/intro-to-coloring/844038377 accessed on 22 October 2012 bring you to a video on mixing color with light.  Here it is:




A the idea of a color wheel was also presented in the above video.  Let's look at another view of that concept:

Do you see ideas here that you can use to develop a lesson or group of lessons or provide tools for students to do their own exploration of science and color?  You can bridge from these ideas to animation or electronics or painting or chemistry or interior decorating and you can engage students in science.
