CLEVELAND
STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT THE ROAR en TWENTIES
Students
from Cleveland area schools enrolled in the Summer Camp at the
Great Lakes Science Center (GLSC) came to the Cleveland Police
Museum to learn about how the technology revolution of the 1920s
effected policing. About 90 students participated in
last years GLSC summer camp program which ran throughout
July. The students were divided into teams and Police Museum
staff members led each team to a different exhibit where one
of the following four themes were illustrated: The First Police
Radio; Prohibition & Bootlegging; Inventor Garrett Morgan
and the First Traffic Light; and The Detective Bureau of Crimes.
Using the artifacts and documents displayed as well as materials
from the archives, each team explored and discussed their theme.
When the teams came back together, each team led the other teams
to their exhibit and shared what they had learned during their
exploratory session.
