The Ghost of the Museum of Technology is writing a letter to a friend. The old ghost only has a sconce holding a lighted candle. In the dim candlelight it’s difficult to write. What kind of more effective way of lighting could you invent? The Ghost and lighting assignments are intended for visitors who explore the museum on their own on Saturday 21.1. and Saturday 28.1. from 11 am to 17 pm. These activities are for children at 5-8 years of age, designed to be done together with an adult. The goal is to explore different kinds of light and energy sources by observing and experimenting. The creative process is rehearsed in practice by brainstorming and constructing children’s own lights based on different premises. The Ghost and lighting learning material is a part of Soile Partanen’s final these in the design degree program of Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. The illustrations have been drawn by Jenni Tuominen and Jukka Pylväs.
