FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW, A STUDENT WAS SELECTED FOR THE PRESTIGIOUS GATES MILLENNIUM SCHOLARSHIP, AWARDED TO ONLY 1,000 STUDENTS IN THE COUNTRY. SCHOOLS ACCEPTING SLA STUDENTS FROM THE CLASS OF 2012 INCLUDE LOCAL INSTITUTIONS DREXEL UNIVERSITY, TEMPLE UNIVERSITY, PENN STATE UNIVERSITY, THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA, AND THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH, AS WELL AS HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES AND A DIVERSE RANGE OF OTHER US AND INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. THE INSTITUTE LOOKS FORWARD TO CONTINUING THIS UNIQUE PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO PROVIDE MEMORABLE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SLA'S STUDENTS, WHO COME FROM MORE THAN 60 DIFFERENT MIDDLE SCHOOLS.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 LINKAGES BETWEEN THE INSTITUTE AND THE ACADEMIC, SCIENTIFIC, AND BUSINESS COMMUNITIES. ON APRIL 26, 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 2012 AWARDS CEREMONY AND DINNER WAS THE CONFERRING OF THE BENJAMIN FRANKLIN MEDAL IN EARTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE TO DR. ELLEN MOSLEY-THOMPSON AND HER HUSBAND, DR. LONNIE G. THOMPSON. THEIR COLLECTIVE STUDIES OF ICE CORES FROM AROUND THE WORLD HAVE IMPROVED THE UNDERSTANDING OF EARTH'S CLIMATE HISTORY, INCLUDING THE ROLE OF THE TROPICS IN GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE. THE THOMPSONS ARE THE FIRST HUSBAND-WIFE TEAM TO WIN A FRANKLIN AWARD SINCE PIERRE AND MARIE CURIE IN 1909. THE 2012 BOWER AWARD FOR ACHIEVEMENT IN SCIENCE AND ITS ACCOMPANYING $250,000 PRIZE WAS CONFERRED TO DR. LOUIS E. BRUS FOR HIS SEMINAL DISCOVERIES AND SCIENTIFIC LEADERSHIP, WHICH HAVE MADE SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS, THEIR SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, AND THEORY A CORNERSTONE OF MODERN CHEMISTRY. THE 2012 BOWER BUSINESS AWARD WAS CONFERRED TO JOHN CHAMBERS, CHAIRMAN AND CEO OF CISCO SYSTEMS. FIVE OTHER SCIENTISTS, EACH OF WHOM REPRESENTS THE PINNACLE OF REVOLUTIONARY ACHIEVEMENT IN THEIR RESPECTIVE FIELDS, RECEIVED AWARDS, INCLUDING DR. VLADMIR VAPNIK (COMPUTER SCIENCE), DR. JERRY NELSON (ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING), DR. SEAN CARROLL (LIFE SCIENCES), DR. ZVI HASHIN (MECHANICAL ENGINEERING), AND DR. RASHID SUNYAEV (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.

        <Description>EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICESA KEY PART OF THE VISITOR EXPERIENCE AT THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE IS SCIENCE PROGRAMMING. DURING THE YEAR THE INSTITUTE OFFERED FIVE DIFFERENT EXPERIENTIAL PACKAGES FOR GRADES 3-12. THE PACKAGES COMBINED AN EXHIBIT WITH RELATED THEATER AND WORKSHOP PROGRAMS, AND WERE DESIGNED TO SUPPORT NATIONAL SCIENCE EDUCATION STANDARDS. THE INSTITUTES WEBSITE CONTINUES TO SERVE AS A POPULAR SOURCE OF COMPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FOR EDUCATORS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC ALIKE; NEARLY 14 MILLION PEOPLE VISITED THE WEBSITE IN 2012. 209,000 STUDENTS AND ADULTS FROM CONNECTICUT TO NORTHERN VIRGINIA WERE INSPIRED BY TRAVELING SCIENCE SHOWS PRESENTED IN 500 LOCATIONS. THE INSTITUTE HAS LONG BEEN A LEADER IN PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OFFERINGS FOR TEACHERS THROUGHOUT THE REGION. 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.EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES FOR YOUNGSTERS FILLED WEEKENDS AND VACATIONS. DISCOVERY CAMP, SPRING BREAK CAMP, AND THE SCHOOL'S CLOSED CAMP WELCOMED OVER 1,733 YOUNGSTERS, AND THE WEEKEND OVERNIGHT CAMP-IN PROGRAM DREW ANOTHER 5,000 YOUNG PEOPLE. DURING THE 2012 CALENDAR YEAR, 1,442 PEOPLE VOLUNTEERED THEIR TIME AT THE INSTITUTE. 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 - LITERALLY. THE TOTAL VALUE OF VOLUNTEER AND INTERN TIME DONATED TO THE INSTITUTE IN 2012 EQUALS MORE THAN $1.5 MILLION. THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE WELCOMED 59 COLLEGE INTERNS FROM SCHOOLS ACROSS THE STATE IN 2012, WHO CONTRIBUTED OVER 10,000 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 TOUGH 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 TO 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. IN DECEMBER 2012, THE INSTITUTE EXCEEDED ITS REVISED FUNDRAISING GOAL OF $64.7 MILLION IN ITS CAPITAL CAMPAIGN, INSPIRE SCIENCE, RAISING $65.2 MILLION IN FUNDS TO EXPAND BOTH THE INSTITUTE'S BUILDING AND PROGRAMMING TO REACH A BROADER AUDIENCE THROUGHOUT GREATER PHILADELPHIA AND BEYOND. DONORS TO INSPIRE SCIENCE FUNDED THE NEW 53,000-SQUARE-FOOT NICHOLAS AND ATHENA KARABOTS PAVILION, LOCATED ON THE INSTITUTE'S SOUTH SIDE AND ADJOINING THE BENJAMIN FRANKLIN NATIONAL MEMORIAL, WHICH WILL ALLOW THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE TO OFFER ITS VISITORS A TRULY WORLD-CLASS SCIENCE CENTER EXPERIENCE. THE BUILDING WILL HOUSE A NEW STEM EDUCATION CENTER, A CLIMATE-CONTROLLED TRAVELING EXHIBITION GALLERY, AND A NEW CORE EXHIBIT YOUR BRAIN IN WHICH VISITORS CAN EXPLORE NEUROSCIENCE AND THEIR OWN SENSES. OVERALL, THE NICHOLAS AND ATHENA KARABOTS PAVILION WILL IMPROVE VISITOR FLOW THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING, PROVIDING A MORE COHESIVE AND HIGHER IMPACT VISITOR EXPERIENCE THAT WILL INCREASE THE ANNUAL ATTENDANCE AND NET INCOME FOR THE INSTITUTE. THE KARABOTS PAVILION WILL BE LEED CERTIFIED AT THE SILVER LEVEL, REDUCING ENERGY USAGE AND SAVING OPERATIONAL COSTS EACH YEAR. CONSTRUCTION OF THE NICHOLAS AND ATHENA KARABOTS PAVILION BEGAN ON APRIL 5, 2012 WITH AN INSTITUTE-WIDE GROUNDBREAKING CELEBRATION, AND WILL BE COMPLETED IN JUNE 2014.</Description>
