I would rate my work a 4. I provided clear explanations for the simulations regarding light and color perception, capturing the essence of how colored filters and bulbs interact with light. I effectively described the behavior of light when interacting with filters and the implications of color blindness.

What I Learned: I learned how colored filters selectively transmit certain wavelengths of light, and how the color of light—be it colored or white—affects what we perceive through those filters. The relationship between light, filters, and human color perception was clarified through practical simulation exercises.

Challenges: One challenge I faced was in articulating the concept of color blindness clearly, particularly in relation to how the absence of certain cones affects perception. I had to think carefully about how to explain the absence of red cones and its implications without oversimplifying the concept.

Overall, I felt that using the simulation as a practical tool helped reinforce my understanding of these concepts, making them easier to communicate.

I think I did a good job explaining how colored filters change light and how they relate to color blindness. I learned that colored filters let only certain colors of light through and that this affects what we see. One challenge I had was explaining color blindness, especially how missing certain colors can change how someone sees things. Using the simulation really helped me understand these ideas better so I could explain them well.
