Here you can find some helpful websites. I have also provided you with section-specific links. What will you find? Tutorials, articles, online text books, and much more. Hopefully it helps.
 

  • Edmund Optics
    • These are the guys who help sponsor this course, so--go ahead--check them out and see what you think.
  • How Stuff Works!
    • What is it you don't understand? How a light bulb works? The physics of a blackbody? Check this website out for all of your curious needs!
  • Spark Notes: Physics
    • Spark Notes for physics!? What more can you ask for? Make sure to check the section on optics out; it's down near the bottom.
  • HyperPhysics
    • This is a comprehensive website--it can help you in all of your physics classes. But makes sure to check out the section on Light and Vision.
  • Optics, an online textbook
    • What!? A free online textbook? You got to check this out, if not to read and enjoy, just to look on in awe at a better future: knowledge for free. I give it two thumbs up.
  • LightAndMatter.Com
    • I liked the online optics text book (from the preceding link) so much that I just had to include the website's whole collection. Take a look at these text books for help in your other courses: Newtonian Physics, Conservation Laws, Vibrations and Waves, Electricity and Magnetism, Optics, Modern Physics... And believe it or not, the list goes on. It's amazing.
  • Google Directory: Optics
    • Google is amazing--here is a directory filled to the brim with helpful links.
