Optics@home: Active remote learning on geometrical and physical optics

Optics@home is a learning path developed under the Italian Project Piano Lauree Scientifiche in Physics at the University of Salento with the aim of involving high school students in experimental scientific laboratories. Due to the health emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the university laboratories were not accessible to students, so we were forced to modify and innovate our laboratory teaching methodologies. In detail, we proposed in-depth optics spacing from the geometrical to the physical one in remote teaching. © 2022 Societa Italiana di Fisica. All rights reserved.
