Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Extolling Edison without concealing his flaws, this program uses an extraordinarily rich selection of vintage film footage and photographic stills.
It tells the story of his remarkable successes (stock ticker, phonograph, electric light bulb, storage battery, motion picture camera) and failures (the pour-it-in-six-hours, all-concrete house; the machine to turn weeds into rubber).
Quantities are limited.
