InventorLabs Technology by Pearson Software

Description

Have you ever wondered how everyday objects such as the telephone, light bulb, and movie camera came into being? InventorLabs Technology invites you to enter the fascinating worlds of three great inventors and re-create their amazing discoveries. Conduct electrifying experiments in Thomas Edison's turn-of-the-century laboratory. Reinvent the telephone with Alexander Graham Bell, and hear the clang of pistons and the hiss of steam as you enter James Watt's 18th-century workshop. Science springs to life in a thrilling, hands-on exploration of the greatest inventors in history.

You'll be transported to another world as you wander through each laboratory, opening drawers, picking up tools, and exploring real drawings, sketches, and notebooks. Meet the extraordinary men who helped shape the future. Probe the innermost workings of their remarkable inventions. Then test your wits by conducting dozens of experiments with hundreds of unique outcomes.

Master the art of scientific inquiry. Like the great inventors, you'll learn from your failures as much as your accomplishments. An Experiment Diary records your progress as you master the art of scientific observation, experimentation, and analysis. You'll build modern-day skills as you solve the great engineering puzzles of yesteryear.
