Exploring Electricity

A class for both women and men who desire a better understanding of the concepts and practical uses of electricity. Topics include: using a volt meter, batteries, static electricity, A.C./D.C.. magnetism, electro-magnetism, series and parallel circuits, among others. Taught by Jim Jensen, retired Charlevoix High School science teacher, these classes will consist of lots of demonstrations and experiments in addition to a lecture and discussion times. A minimum of 10 people are needed to sign up for each class in order for it to be held. Please call 231-237-7340 to register. You can register for individual classes or for the entire series.
