The In-School Program
The In-School Program
is about
an hour long and introduces students to the basic principles of electricity
using interactive science equipment. The class was designed with the help of
local teachers to get kids involved and excited about science, history, and
electricity.
Materials used in the In-School Program include:
|
|
a Plasma Globe
|
a Van der Graaf
Generator
|
|
|
a Tesla Coil
|
|
and Hand-Crank Generators that allow kids to
produce their own electricity. |
|
Visual aids also help to illustrate
the structure of
atoms and ions.
|
