Desc	EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, SERVICES & GRANTS COMPLETING ITS 26TH YEAR IN 2018, THE PARTNERS FOR ACHIEVING CAREERS IN TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE (PACTS) PROGRAM IS ONE OF THE REGION'S OLDEST AND MOST COMPREHENSIVE SCIENCE IMMERSION PROGRAMS FOR DIVERSE URBAN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. PACTS SERVED 181 STUDENTS FROM AREA PUBLIC SCHOOLS DURING THE 2017-2018 SCHOOL YEAR. IN ITS EIGHTH YEAR, THE INSTITUTE'S STEM SCHOLARS PROGRAM, A CONCENTRATED PROGRAM OF HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO SHOW HIGH INTEREST IN AND APTITUDE FOR STEM FIELDS, SERVED 46 STUDENTS. PACTS AND STEM SCHOLARS PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH ACCESS TO STEM PROFESSIONALS, AS WELL AS COLLEGE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICES, APPLICATION AND FINANCIAL AID COUNSELING, EXPOSURE TO STEM CAREERS, AND ANNUAL ROBOTICS PROGRAMS. THESE TWO PROGRAMS DELIVER UNIQUE STEM PROGRAMMING TO A DIVERSE AUDIENCE. AS THE ORGANIZER OF THE PHILADELPHIA SCIENCE FESTIVAL, THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE HELPED 200 PARTNERS TO REACH 50,000 PEOPLE IN NEIGHBORHOODS ACROSS THE CITY WITH HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS AND DEMONSTRATIONS IN ITS EIGHTH YEAR IN 2018. FEATURING THE SCIENCE CARNIVAL ON THE PARKWAY THAT WAS ATTENDED BY MORE THAN 35,000 PEOPLE, THE FESTIVAL ALSO HELD DOZENS OF STARGAZING EVENTS IN CITY NEIGHBORHOODS AND OFFERED A DIVERSE RANGE OF PUBLIC PROGRAMMING ABOUT SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY FOR BOTH ADULTS AND CHILD AUDIENCES. ONE PARTICULAR SUCCESS WAS A DOZEN DISCOVERY DAYS, GATHERINGS OF NONPROFIT, CORPORATE, AND ACADEMIC PARTNERS IN NEIGHBORHOODS ACROSS THE CITY AND THE SURROUNDING SUBURBS, WHO WORKED TOGETHER TO EDUCATE AND INSPIRE RESIDENTS ABOUT VARIOUS ASPECTS OF SCIENCE AND DISCOVERY. THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE ALSO DEVELOPS MODEL PROGRAMS IN SCIENCE LEARNING FOR THE K-12 EDUCATION COMMUNITY THAT ARE DELIVERED BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE MUSEUM WALLS, INCLUDING THE LEAP INTO SCIENCE PROGRAM THAT COMBINED ALPHABETICAL LITERACY WITH SCIENTIFIC LITERACY FOR 480 EDUCATORS WHO ENGAGED MORE THAN 17,500 CHILDREN AND CAREGIVERS IN 22 STATES IN 2018.

Desc	MUSEUM ADMISSIONS & OPERATIONS AS THE MOST VISITED MUSEUM IN THE COMMONWEALTH AND A TOP-FIVE TOURIST DESTINATION IN THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE SERVES AS BOTH A PROMINENT EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCE, AND AS AN ANCHOR OF THE LOCAL ECONOMY. IN 2018, THE INSTITUTE WELCOMED 733,324 VISITORS TO THE MUSEUM, INCLUDING 35,000 CHILDREN WHO CAME FOR FREE AND 135,000 MORE AT A DEEPLY REDUCED COST VIA OUR ACCESS PROGRAM. THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE'S LONGSTANDING REPUTATION HELPS TO ELEVATE THE COMMONWEALTH AND THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA AS MODELS FOR CULTURAL AND INFORMAL EDUCATION EXCELLENCE. THE INSTITUTE WELCOMES VISITORS OF ALL AGES TO EXPLORE SCIENCE IN INTERACTIVE EXHIBITS AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS. THE INSTITUTE REMAINS FULLY COMMITTED TO PROVIDING AN EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE FOR ITS MANY VISITORS AND INCREASING SERVICE TO ITS AUDIENCE, EXTENDING THE INSTITUTE'S MISSION- TO INSPIRE A PASSION FOR LEARNING ABOUT SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY-TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES THROUGHOUT GREATER PHILADELPHIA, REGARDLESS OF MEANS, REMAINS, AS ALWAYS, AT THE HEART OF ITS PRIORITIES. IT DOES SO THROUGH OUTSTANDING EXHIBITS AND MANY EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS, ESPECIALLY THOSE FOR UNDER-RESOURCED YOUTH AND FAMILIES SUCH AS COMMUNITY NIGHT AND THE PHILADELPHIA SCIENCE FESTIVAL. THE INSTITUTE REGULARLY HOSTS TRAVELING EXHIBITIONS COVERING DIFFERENT TOPICS AND ERAS. WE BEGAN 2018 WITH TERRACOTTA WARRIORS OF THE FIRST EMPEROR, IN WHICH VISITORS TRAVELED BACK MORE THAN 2,000 YEARS TO DISCOVER THE SECRETS OF ANCIENT CHINA, INCLUDING 10 LIFE-SIZE CLAY STATUES AND 160 OTHER ARTIFACTS. THEN, GAME MASTERS INVITED GUESTS TO ENJOY 100+ VIDEO GAMES SPANNING FOUR DECADES, WITH ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES DIVING INTO THE SCIENCE OF PROGRAMMING AND DIGITAL CREATION. WE FINISHED THE YEAR WITH VIKINGS: BEYOND THE LEGEND, WHICH IMMERSED VISITORS IN THE WORLD OF THESE ANCIENT EXPLORERS, FEATURING MORE THAN 600 ARTIFACTS AND A RECONSTRUCTED 122-FOOT VIKING SHIP. THE THREE INSTITUTE THEATERS: THE FELS PLANETARIUM, THE FRANKLIN 3D THEATER, AND THE TUTTLEMAN IMAX, OPENED NEW WORLDS TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VISITORS. THE FREQUENTLY UPDATED SCHEDULE OF CINEMATIC PROGRAMMING IN 2018 INCLUDED A BEAUTIFUL PLANET, MYSTERIES OF CHINA, DREAM BIG, AND EXTREME WEATHER. WHILE THE INSTITUTE'S HISTORIC FELS PLANETARIUM CONTINUED TO OFFER OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD SHOWS INCLUDING THE FIRST FRANKLIN INSTITUTE -PRODUCED FULL DOME PLANETARIUM SHOW TO SPACE AND BACK, ALONG WITH THE SKY TONIGHT, WILDEST WEATHER IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM, AND ASTEROID: MISSION EXTREME. DURING THE 2018 CALENDAR YEAR, NEARLY 1,600 PEOPLE VOLUNTEERED 74,000 HOURS OF THEIR TIME AT THE INSTITUTE - THE EQUIVALENT OF 38 FULL-TIME POSITIONS AND $1.8 MILLION. FROM WORKING AT THE BRAIN BAR ON THE FLOOR TO STAFFING THE PHILADELPHIA SCIENCE FESTIVAL TO WORKING BEHIND THE SCENES TO CATALOG ITEMS IN THE ARCHIVES, THE INSTITUTE'S VOLUNTEERS PROVIDE VALUABLE ASSISTANCE. THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE WELCOMED 54 COLLEGE INTERNS FROM SCHOOLS ACROSS THE STATE IN 2018, WHO CONTRIBUTED OVER 10,824 HOURS OUT OF THEIR BUSY SCHEDULES. IN ADDITION TO LENDING THE INSTITUTE THEIR SKILLS, THEY LEARNED ON-THE-JOB LESSONS THAT WILL HELP THEM IN THE JOB MARKET, AND GAINED EXPERIENCE AS MUSEUM EDUCATORS. ANOTHER GROUP OF VOLUNTEERS ARE THE RETIRED SCIENTISTS, ENGINEERS, AND INVENTORS WHO WORK ON THE FLOOR EXPLAINING THE EXHIBITS AND DEMONSTRATIONS TO VISITORS. STILL OTHER VOLUNTEERS WORK WITH STUDENTS IN THE PARTNERSHIPS FOR ACHIEVING CAREERS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (PACTS) PROGRAM, TEACHING THEM HOW TO BUILD ROBOTS, DESIGN BUILDINGS, AND BECOME WHO THEY WANT TO BE. OTHER VOLUNTEERS INCLUDE THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE ON SCIENCE AND THE ARTS, WHO HELP SELECT THE FRANKLIN AWARDS LAUREATES EACH YEAR, AND THE MANY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY WHO SERVE ON BOARDS SUCH AS THE FRIENDS COMMITTEE, THE AWARDS COMMITTEE, AND THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

Desc	FRANKLIN INSTITUTE AWARDS & OTHER PROJECTS FOR NEARLY TWO CENTURIES THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE AWARDS PROGRAM HAS RECOGNIZED OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENTS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, CELEBRATED THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE, AND PROVIDED DYNAMIC CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE INSTITUTE AND THE ACADEMIC, SCIENTIFIC, AND BUSINESS COMMUNITIES. ON APRIL 19, THE SOLD-OUT FRANKLIN INSTITUTE AWARDS CEREMONY AND DINNER WAS THE CULMINATION OF A FULL WEEK OF INSPIRING EVENTS. AWARDS WEEK, WHICH BEGAN THE MONDAY BEFORE THE AWARDS CEREMONY AND DINNER, INCLUDED A SERIES OF PUBLIC SYMPOSIA AND LECTURES THAT PROVIDED OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE INTERNATIONALLY DISTINGUISHED LAUREATES TO SHARE THEIR DISCOVERIES, EXPERIENCES, AND VIEWS WITH PUBLIC AUDIENCES. OTHER AWARDS WEEK ACTIVITIES INCLUDED LAUREATES' LABORATORY, A SESSION AT THE INSTITUTE IN WHICH THE LAUREATES PARTICIPATED IN INTERACTIVE DEMONSTRATIONS OF THEIR WORK GEARED TOWARD VISITING STUDENTS; AND THE MEET THE SCIENTISTS PROGRAM, WHICH WAS MODERATED BY STUDENTS FROM THE PACTS PROGRAM. ONE HIGHLIGHT OF THE 2018 AWARDS CEREMONY AND DINNER WAS THE CONFERRING OF THE BOWER AWARD FOR BUSINESS LEADERSHIP TO ANNE MULCAHY FOR HER TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP OF THE ICONIC XEROX CORPORATION, WHERE HER FOCUS ON VALUES, CUSTOMERS, EMPLOYEES, AND INNOVATION LED TO ONE OF THE BIGGEST CULTURAL AND FINANCIAL TURNAROUNDS IN THE HISTORY OF THE FORTUNE 500. THE 2018 BOWER AWARD FOR ACHIEVEMENT IN SCIENCE WAS CONFERRED TO DR. PHILIPPE HORVATH FOR THE FOUNDATIONAL DISCOVERY OF THE ROLE OF CRISPR-CAS AS A MICROBIAL SYSTEM OF ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY THAT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED AS A POWERFUL TOOL FOR PRECISE EDITING OF DIVERSE GENOMES. SEVEN OTHER SCIENTISTS, EACH OF WHOM REPRESENTS THE PINNACLE OF REVOLUTIONARY ACHIEVEMENT IN THEIR RESPECTIVE FIELDS, RECEIVED AWARDS, INCLUDING DR. JOHN GOODENOUGH (CHEMISTRY), DR. VINTON GRAY CERF AND DR. ROBERT KAHN (COMPUTER AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE), DR. SUSAN TRUMBORE (EARTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE), DR. MANIJEH RAZEGHI (ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING), DR. ADRIAN BEJAN (MECHANICAL ENGINEERING), AND DR. HELEN RHODA QUINN (PHYSICS). THE JOURNAL OF THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE, THE SECOND OLDEST SCHOLARLY JOURNAL IN CONTINUOUS PUBLICATION IN THE UNITED STATES, HAS INCREASED THE VOLUME OF ARTICLES PER ISSUE, AS WELL AS THE READERSHIP. ALL 193 YEARS OF THE JOURNAL ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE THROUGH LIBRARIES AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS. THE INSTITUTE'S ONLINE PRESENCE CONTINUED TO SERVE AS A POPULAR SOURCE OF COMPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FOR EDUCATORS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC ALIKE IN 2018, WITH 3.9 MILLION PEOPLE VISITING OUR WEBSITE, 600,000 FOLLOWING US ON FACEBOOK, 65,000 ON TWITTER, AND 43,000 ON INSTAGRAM. THE INSTITUTE HAS LONG BEEN A LEADER IN PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OFFERINGS FOR TEACHERS THROUGHOUT THE REGION AND IN 2018 SERVED 3,470 EDUCATORS. WHILE TEACHERS MAY ONLY HAVE ONE OPPORTUNITY TO BRING THEIR STUDENTS TO THE MUSEUM EACH YEAR, THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE'S WEALTH OF EDUCATOR RESOURCES AND WORKSHOPS ENABLES TEACHERS TO BRING THE SPARK FOR HANDS-ON SCIENCE INTERACTION INTO THEIR DAILY LESSONS. THE INSTITUTE'S PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS BUILD TEACHERS' CONFIDENCE, AND HELP THEM TO ALIGN CLASSROOM EDUCATION WITH NATIONALLY MANDATED STANDARDS AND WITH INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING ACTIVITIES.
