Project

Project Name: Elementary Electromagnetism in Action!

Project Leaders: Jack Horowitz, Travis Pappa, & Amandeep Gill

Chapter Advisors: Dr. Hongtao Shi

Project Description: The SSU SPS chapter would like to go to a fourth grade class room in a local school to inspire and help educate students in the physical sciences, using a hands-on approach. We wish to show the primary school children the fun and exciting nature of magnetism. Finally we would like the children to take away an important lesson with them as well as get them motivated to try experiments at home, using lessons and materials given to them in class.
