Serbian Minister of Education and Sport Slobodan Vuksanovic told a press conference that Tesla cards, containing questions and answers about the work of Nikola Tesla, will be distributed in elementary schools in Serbia, where quizzes and contests will be held for students of the seventh grade.
Director of the British Council Chris Gibson said that the project aims to facilitate the learning process for children and make science more popular among them.
It would be hard to imagine the life of the contemporary man without Tesla and his inventions, said Gibson.
He added that apart from Serbia, Tesla cards will also be distributed in Bulgaria, Israel, Ireland, Macedonia and Great Britain.
