The Charles Edison Fund:
Edison Awards Program

 
Purpose

In order to participate in our Awards Program (Edison sunburst light bulb t-shirt, matching baseball cap and signed certificate of award), just evaluate a few experiments, return the report card and follow the details outlined in our Science Project Award Program letter of instruction.
Include the name of your school, address and class, together with the names of students who participated in the Edison Teaching Kit Experiments-- each of whom will receive an engraved certificate. The student selected by the teacher as top winner, in addition to the certificate, will receive a t-shirt and cap. Completion and return of the report card, either by e-mail or postal mail, will help us to enhance these experiments.

The purpose of the Science Teaching Experiments is to stimulate an interest in science and technology among elementary school students through easy to perform experiments in basic scientific concepts.

Edison Awards Program

An important part of the program is our reward to participants in science projects.

Any number of students can compete for a certificate of award based upon scholarship or science entry project or both. Teachers send in a questionnaire outlining details about the winner, and describing his or her scholastic achievement or science entry project teachers need to include the following information on school letterhead to qualify:

  1. Complete name and street address of school.
  2. Teacher's name and grade level
  3. Printed names of all participants so that their names may be accurately inscribed on the certificates.
  4. Identify the top winner who will receive a sunburst Edison t-shirt with matching baseball cap to be mailed with the certificate.
