We hear about fiber optics all the time - it's in the news whenever we hear articles about high tech, the Internet and communications, and many communities are getting "fiber to the home."
FOA is focused on educating the workforce that installs and operates these fiber optic networks and we're always helping STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) teachers introduce fiber optics to younger students in K-12 grades or technical schools.
With this video, we show teachers simple experiments to demonstrate how fiber optics works in the classroom using some plastic fiber and a laser pointer. Since many teachers do not know where to get the fiber, the FOA offers to send them a sample for use in demonstrations in their classroom.
At the end of the video, teachers are given directions on how to request samples of fiber from the FOA.
