Water Labels and Tesla

Contributor :

Rod Smith

Action Plan

Collect water labels. Collect photos. Collect information about Nikola Tesla.

Pre-Departure Preparation

I share a different poster every week titled "Where DO Science teachers GO in the Summer?" My goal is to increase the number of chemistry and physics teachers -- areas where there continues to be shortages of the very people needed to prepare future engineers, nurses, pharmacists, etc. -- by allowing them to see the very opportunity GEEO provides. I also collect water labels to use in teaching chemistry lessons about ions, molarity and stoichiometry. I intend to use my visit to the Tesla Museum in Belgrade, Serbia, when introducing electricity to physics students.

Preparation During Travel

Read Lonely Planet book about the Balkans; follow Tripadvisor questions about Hungary, Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia.
