Students should bring the following materials in advance:
A hard transparent surface (an old CD case, for example)
Clear plastic tape (should be completely transparent)
Polarizing sunglasses (most prescription sunglasses and 3D-move glasses work; to test, rotate them in front of a laptop screen and see if it blacks out at a certain angle)
