Seeing The World: A Vision Science Workbook

In the Spring of 2021, I offered my Sensation & Perception course remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To incorporate hands-on activities during the semester, the NDSU bookstore worked with me to offer a course kit of materials containing the filters, lenses, lasers, etc. that students would need to complete the demos listed on this site. Because that course kit cost about 65 USD, I didn't want to ask students to buy an expensive textbook as well. Instead, I put together this free workbook, which includes conceptual and quantitative problems assigned as homework during the term.

This is very much a work in progress, so please forgive any errors or sections that just seem clunky. I continue to make edits to the text (especially with regard to the images) and updates will be visible here as they are being made. If you do have comments, questions, or errata, please feel free to let me know via email (see the footer for my contact information).
