Stereoscope
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

Ambiguous Cube
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a three-dimensional ambiguous cube to explore visual illusions and how our brains interpret or misinterpret information.

Visualizing How the Vestibular System Works
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 59 of the PDF), learners spin and observe false eyelashes in jars of water (prepared at least 1 day ahead of time) to investigate the effects of different types of motion on the

Building a 3-D Space Maze: Escher Staircase
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 95 of the PDF), learners create Escher Staircase models similar to those that were used by Neurolab's Spatial Orientation Team to investigate the processing of information about

Measuring Your Blind Spot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners calculate the width (horizontal diameter) of the blind spot on their retina. Learners make a blind spot tester using a piece of notebook paper.

Look Into Infinity
Source Institutions
Learners use two mirrors to explore how images of images of images can repeat forever.

Find Your Way Around Without Visual or Sound Cues
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play a series of simple games to investigate navigation without visual and sound cues.

Auditory Acuity
Source Institutions
This activity (8th activity on the page) tests learners' ability to identify things using only the sense of hearing.

Investigating Sleep
Source Institutions
In this activity about sleep rhythms (on page 25 of the PDF), learners will investigate how changing the time they go to bed impacts their own sleep patterns.

Vestibular-Ocular Reflex
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will perform various investigations to understand the vestibular-ocular reflex and learn about the importance of visual cues in maintaining balance.
