Learning Targets – Unit 5B
MICROSCOPES
If we, as a class, can begin each statement with, “We can…” then we
will have achieved our goal of truly understanding our
learning targets.
Here are our learning targets for this unit!
You will be
introduced to How do you feel?

identify and state the function of the parts of a
compound light microscope
locate and focus objects clearly under low and
high power using a stereoscope and compound
microscope
recognize and follow the procedure for using and
handling a microscope correctly
use both a stereoscope and compound light
microscope correctly
define the following terms as they relate to
microscopes: depth of view, field of view, image,
magnification, object, parfocal, resolution
calculate the total magnification of an image
through a microscope
compare and contrast the following observations
made through a compound microscope,
stereoscope, and electron microscope: light
conditions required, magnification, orientation of
the image, size of fields of view, types of objects
viewed
compare what happens to the size of the field of
view, the brightness, and the size of the image
when switching between low and high powers on
a compound light microscope
