Eighteenth Century Electricity Kit

位于明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯的巴肯：生活中的电力图书馆和博物馆将通过建造20个18世纪电力套件的原型来准备一个电力教学模型。该工具包由易于组装的部件组成，包括一个圆柱形静电发生器，一个莱顿瓶，一个静电计，一个静电计以及教师和学生的指南。这些材料将附带一段30到40分钟的视频，描述巴肯收藏的18世纪电气设备的原始实验。这个演示和手。针对7.9级学生的活动工具包。巴肯博物馆收藏的珍贵书籍和仪器为科学和医学史上的学术研究创造了一个中心。特别是对于教师来说，巴肯的科学学习的历史方法将促进对物理的更好理解，并将提供可以轻松融入当前科学课程的材料。

The Bakken: A Library and Museum of Electricity in Life locatedin Minneapolis, Minnesota will prepare a model for teachingelectricity by building twenty prototypes of an eighteenthcentury electricity kit. Comprising of easily assembled parts,the kit will include a cylinder electrostatic generator, a leydenjar, an electrophorus, an electrometer and guides for teachersand students. Accompanying the materials will be a 30 to 40minute video depicting original experiments performed oneighteenth century electrical apparatus in the Bakken collection. This demonstration and the hands.on activity kit are targeted forgrades 7.9. The Bakken's collection of rare books and instruments create acenter for scholarly research in the history of science andmedicine. Specifically for teacher, the Bakken's historicalapproach to scientific learning will promote a betterunderstanding of physics and will provide materials that canintegrate easily into present science curriculum.
