Dumont, Thomas Edison, Guilhermo Marconi, Alexandre Graham Bell...Apesar de
viverem em épocas distintas, esses homens marcaram seus nomes na história
mundial por sua criatividade e ousadia. Eles revolucionaram o modo de vida da
humanidade com a idealização do avião, da lâmpada, do rádio e do telefone,
facilitando a rotina das pessoas e fazendo com que o progresso surgisse.
O Year 4 está trabalhando a unidade
“How the World Works”, explorando como os seres humanos tem a capacidade de
aprimorar a tecnologia. Durante o mês de Agosto os alunos da quarta serie se
aventuraram em pesquisar e conhecer a trajetoria de diversos inventores e suas
invenções. Para reencarnar na pele dos inventores e na época correspondente,
criaram uma dramatização em forma de dialogo e entrevista escolhendo seus
inventores favoritos. Com suporte do Media Lab estarão filmando suas
reportagens em grupo. Este trabalho é p/que as
crianças, de uma forma lúdica, entrem em contato com a história geral e vejam a
importância dessas criações em suas vidas. Desejamo-lhes muita criatividade e que se divirtam!

In 1871, he began working with deaf people and
published the system of Visible Hearing that was developed by his father.
Visible Hearing illustrated how the tongue, lips, and throat are used to
produce vocal sounds. In 1872, Bell founded a school for the deaf which soon
became part of Boston University.
Telephone
Alexander Graham Bell is best known for his
invention of the telephone. While trying to discover the secret to transmitting
multiple messages on a single wire, Bell heard the sound of a plucked string
along some of the electrical wire. One of Bell’s assistants, Thomas A. Watson
was trying to reactivate a telephone transmitter. After hearing the sound, Bell
believed he could send the sound of a human voice over the wire. After
receiving a patent on March 7, 1876, for transmitting sound along a single
wire, he successfully transmitted human speech on March 10th. Bell’s telephone
patent was one of the most valuable patents ever issued.
National Geographic
Bell went on to invent a precursor to the modern
day air conditioner, and a device called a “photophone” that enabled sound to
be transmitted on a beam of light and on which today’s fiber optic and laser
communication systems are based. In 1898, Alexander Graham Bell and his son-in
law took over the National Geographic Society and built into one of the most
recognized magazines in the world. Bell also helped found Science Magazine, one
of the most respected research journals in the world.
Death
Alexander Graham Bell died August 2, 1922. On the
day of his burial, in honor of Bell, all telephone service in the U.S. was
stopped for one minute.
