PORTAL TO DISCOVERY - INVENTIONS:
Build, Build, BUILD! with Coils, Coils, Coils! Extend your understanding with delightful animations that show how the electronic components used in the Inventions kit work. Watch video demonstrations uploaded by others who actually completed the Inventions projects. Includes simulations, interactive play, crossword puzzles and quizzes. EXPLORE!
DESCRIPTION:
– Ages 8 to 80
– 40 page science book with materials.
4 MAJOR PROJECTS TO BUILD:
– A spinning motor
– A clicking telegraph
– A light flashing generator
– A real radio
Requires one D-cell battery
Step by step, highly visual instructions lead a child successfully through each invention. Full-color illustrations present central scientific concepts which allow children to discover the “why” as well as the “how”.
The use of everyday materials demystifies the workings of common electronic components.
The animations that compliment the book on the website deepen and extend comprehension.
Although designed for 8 year olds, Inventions has an extraordinary history and following.
– It has been used at MIT to mentor high school students in physics.
– It has been used at U.C. Berkeley to mentor women in science.
– It has been used similarly at other institutions including the Fermi Lab and the University of Texas at Austin.
– It was rumored that a number of physicists at U.C. Berkeley were spinning the handmade motors on their desks competing to see which motor would spin the fastest!
– Inventions received a rave review from the Women’s Society of the IEEE after using it for camp programs for elementary school students. The IEEE’s review boasted, “The projects actually WORK….even for large groups where individualized attention is not possible.”
ABOUT ScienceWiz:
Penny Norman, Ph.D., Author
Penny earned a doctoral degree in Biophysics from U.C. Berkeley.
She became involved with the development of primary grade science materials through volunteer work, which she began as her own children started school. During this process she became deeply concerned about the limited exposure of elementary age students to the physical sciences. Dr. Norman's concern has translated into a 15 year effort to test and revamp science materials for the primary grades. Her work with children developed into a product line initially under the auspices of grants from the National Science Foundation and the Franklin Foundation. Her published titles reflect Dr. Norman's extensive testing and involvement with children and teachers and her love and commitment to both.
The ScienceWiz Books and Kits created by Dr. Penny Norman have received awards from Scientific American, Good Morning America, Dr. Toy, National Parenting Magazine, American Specialty Toy Retail Association, Creative Child Magazine and Woman's Day Magazine, to name but a few. The ScienceWiz line has also been covered by NPR radio on Science Friday and received accolades from the Women's Society of the IEEE.
