Do
you love technology old and new? Did you devote your life
to a specialty and would like to pass on your knowledge? Or perhaps
you just like teaching and connecting with others?
Whether
you are looking to get experience on your resume, or are enjoying
retirement the Edison Tech Center has volunteer positions of every
kind:
Behind
the Scenes: There are volunteer positions available for those
who like to build, tinker, research and write papers as part of
our efforts. The old Gazette building provides a place to work
out of the public exhibition area. We need help in constructing
new exhibits, fixing old displays, labeling and identifying mysterious
old machines/electronics. Some volunteers have contributed scientific
and engineering papers to our online educational content.
Connecting
with people: If you like connecting with people of all ages,
or have a natural teaching ability one can help as a docent during
public hours, or during group visits. Communicate your energy
and passion for engineering and discovery to the newest generations,
and reminisce with older generations.
Project
Based Volunteerships: You can focus on one particular project
weekly in an area of interest. Currently we need help with displays
and online material about: Radio, Audio Recording, Television,
Vacuum Tubes, Automatic Control, Chemistry and Materials, Electric
Vehicles, Computers and Semiconductors.
