Build a Model Solar Car Educator Workshop: The Junior Solar Sprint Experience, Philadephia, PA
The Philadelphia Solar Energy Association (PSEA), in collaboration with NESEA, is hosting an area Junior Solar Sprint teacher training workshop at the Wissahickon Charter School in Philadelphia, PA on Saturday, March 5, from 9:00am - 12:00pm. Join PESA staff for a spirited ride in solar education!
The Junior Solar Sprint workshop is designed to prepare teachers and non-formal educators in leading middle school kids through Junior Solar Sprint, a highly engaging and successful program where kids design, build and compete with model solar electric cars. Your young engineers will deepen their understanding about solar energy, math, physical science and craftsmanship. Teams can enter their cars in local design and race competitions with top winners invited to NESEA\'s annual northeast championship. At the workshop you will receive:
* A basic parts model solar car kit donated by Pitsco and hands-on building practice
* JSS educator resources including lesson plans and area event information
* A chance at door prizes including a model car solar panel
* Professional development points for hours attending workshop
Light refreshments will be provided.
Registration is required. To register for the workshop, send an e-mail with your name and contact information to Joe Bruno, Philadelphia Area JSS Coordinator at: joegbruno@comcast.net
