9.63 Laboratory in Visual Cognition (MIT)
9.63 teaches principles of experimental methods in human perception and cognition, including design and statistical analysis. The course combines lectures and hands-on experimental exercises and requires an independent experimental project. Some experience in programming is desirable. To foster improved writing and presentation skills in conducting and critiquing research in cognitive science, students are required to provide reports and give oral presentations of three team experiments. A fourt

Sound Waves Underwater: True or False (Interactive Game)
Does sound travel faster in space than in water? Do whales of different species make similar sounds? Does warm water allow sound to travel faster? Learn more about how sound travels underwater by answering 10 true-or-false questions in this interactive quiz from the NOVA Web site.
Spectrometry Explained (Interactive)
In this interactive activity adapted from NASA, learn how scientists use the electromagnetic spectrum to identify materials. Animations illustrate how spectrometers separate light across the spectrum and how line spectra are created. Learn how patterns of absorption and emission lines can be used as fingerprints to identify the chemical composition of an object.
Sources of Radiation (Interactive)
Radiation, like energy, comes in many different forms and from many different sources. This interactive activity from the NOVA Web site identifies common forms of radiation that people encounter throughout their lives and explains where they come from and what effects they might have on human health.
Sound Puzzle (Interactive Game)
Listen to these sonic "puzzle pieces" and then rearrange them so that they make sense when played in order. Then try to figure out what is making the sound.
