Physics 112: Refraction Simulation C

http://www.sciencejoywagon.com/physicszone/otherpub/wfendt/huygens.htm

This is a more advanced explaination of how the change of direction happens. We will discuss it in class but not until the end of the unit.

Physics 112: Refraction Simulations B

http://www.sciencejoywagon.com/physicszone/otherpub/wfendt/refraction.htm

This website shows a scematic of how a ray of light changes direction (like we have in our notes). You can adjust the wavelength, angle and media of the scematic.
