Tacony Family Science and Invention Night

Details

This Wednesday from 6-8 pm, we have our Science and Invention Night at Tacony Academy Charter School. First grade students will be presenting their invention proposals as solutions to a problem. At Tacony Academy our mission is invention and innovation . By telling students at a young age that they have important ideas, and they can solve world problems, they will internalize the identity of an inventor and a creator. There are no prizes at our events as our caring school community is inclusive of all levels of participation.

STARTING A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL

STARTING A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL

How can you organize a Tesla Club at your School? How can the Tesla Science Foundation (TSF) help? The first step would be to introduce your students to Tesla’s life and work through classroom presentations or a school assembly, depending on the best fit for your school. TSF would bring a display made by Tesla Museum and TSF and lead the initial presentation.

After that, we will consult with interested students and faculty to prepare a mission statement and organize the club. We have a host of resources for helping you to expand your Tesla Club’s exposure and membership, including:

-A Play: “Tesla Past, Present, Future” for which we already have a script.

-Tesla Traveling Exhibit (obtained by TSF from the Tesla Museum)

-Organizing exhibits for arts, science, literary achievements, and the like (TSF would award medals and certificates for the best work).

-Community evenings could also be organized in partnership with TSF. We could have an exhibit of student work. In addition to students’ families, the school could be open to the community.

-Tesla Clubs would have an opportunity to be on Tesla Talk TV (TSF’s TV channel).

Additionally, student members could become TSF members, where the school clubs would be advertised.

-The best student work would be presented at our January and July Conferences in New York and Philadelphia, respectively.

-We can provide quizzes about the life and work of Nikola Tesla. The best students would get TSF participation certificates.

Presentation of new Tesla experiments!

We bring together those with a genuine interest in Tesla through educational programs, workshops, meetings, and public events. We also select several inventors per year who have demonstrated a promising idea that exemplifies Tesla’s life and work. We help patent and and bring these ideas to market by forming an appropriate team of professionals including engineers, attorneys, and business/marketing specialists.

Presentation of Nikola Tesla AR by Professor Brian Yetzer

Nikola Tesla is arguably one the most innovative scientists and inventors of the 20th century. So why is he largely ignored in history and science classes across the country?

Using augmented reality (AR) children and adults alike can now learn more about Tesla by downloading the free app and scanning poster designs with their mobile devices.

The app and its corresponding interactive posters up the ante on the “edutainment” experience. By way of 3D animation and the video playback of short documentary films, the mobile augmented reality app brings awareness to Tesla’s dream of a world with free, renewable energy. We’re helping to make this dream a reality via education.
