Dear All
As a new comer to the ISEN-ASTC chat room, We are currently re-furbishing the Power Hall at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester and taking a fresh look at introducing some new interactives, and more specifically how we understand and interpret what power is? for an introduction area.
I realise it is certainly a large topic and this is primarily an investigative approach.
At this point we have a number of ideas that we have already prepared and ready to run with- a number of 'irons in the fire. eg waterwheel, Stirling engine etc. We are hoping there are further ideas that someone has experience as being successful.
What we are concentrating on the user side and how intuitive the operation is and the reward factor being action packed! (don't want much)
Anyone with any thoughts at this stage that would be able to assist or point us in new direction to research more.
Many Thanks in advance.
