Several proposals on how to use modern technical devices and equipment common in households when teaching physics. A measurement of strength of Velcro. Examination of the infrared radiation emitted by the remote control. Comparison of illumination by a compact fluorescent light and a common light bulb using a photometer. Measurement of a lattice constant of a CD, application of a CD as a spectrometer. A principle of phototropic glass, analysis of its reaction to illumination by different sources.
