My rating of this resource: ****
My experience using this resource: Earth Science
Topic I was teaching: gravitational pull
My learning goal for which this resource was used: to show how gravity can exert a pull even on light waves
Course Level: Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: students saw a picture of how light bends around a very massive object creating "artifacts" on a picture
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation, Increases access to scientists, Provides additional content
Strengths: These images are spectacular and very easy to find - since the website lists all of themStudents get to see images of space that they will not see anywhere else Very easy to start a discussion after viewing any of these spectacular images Besides a picture this website provides a short explanation of what you se in the picture
Weaknesses: none
