This module contains various activities and tasks to be accomplished which will give you more understanding on the significance and effects of electromagnetic waves.

At the end of this module you will be able to:

1. cite examples of practical applications of the different regions of EM waves, such as the use of radio waves in telecommunication;

2. explain the effects of electromagnetic radiation on living things and the environment.
