Introduction

The purpose of this study is to develop a script summarizing the content which will be included

in the final presentation paper inform of slides. The study will evaluate what information will be

included in the final presentation paper which will be prepared in form of slides. The first slide

will entail the title of the topic of discussion, the next slide will highlight the objectives of the

study, the next slide will summarize the life history of Nikola Tesla, the next two or three slides

will discuss Nikola Tesla’s inventions, discoveries and major projects carried out in his life, the

next slide will outline his contribution to the society, scholars, different nations and the whole

world, the next slide will discuss his end time and how he died, and then the last two slides will

cover the conclusion of the study and references used in the study.

The final presentation paper is expected to have 5-8 slides, the first slide will specifically display

the title of the topic of discussion. The title will be “The famous Serbian-American inventor and

engineer, Nikola Tesla”. The whole study from the first slide will be discussing the life,

inventions, discoveries, contribution, and death of Nikola Tesla who was a specialist in electrical

and mechanical engineering thus making the title to be the most appropriate.

The next slide will outline the objective of the study, the first objective will be evaluating the life

history of the great electrical and mechanical engineer by the name Nikola Tesla. The second

objective will discuss Nikola Tesla’s inventions, discoveries, and major projects carried out in his

life on earth. The third objective will outline Nikola Tesla’s contribution to society, scholars,

different nations, and the whole world. The last objective will discuss Nikola Tesla’s death life.

The life history of Nikola Tesla will be discussed in the next slide, he was a Serbian-American

born in 1856. He was a known electrical and mechanical engineer best known for his

contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system

whereby he created a three-phase transmission method for electric power. He grew up in the

Austrian Empire and later joined the Technical University of Graz in Austria and the University

of Prague in todays’ Czech Republic. Later he moved to Budapest where he discovered the

rotating magnetic field’s theory and brought up the idea of motor induction which utilized his

alternative current (AC) design. Tesla’s proposed power systems inspired modern technology,

Kak (2017). He moved to the US later in his life whereby he met Thomas Edison a fellow

innovator but they separated later. He later established laboratories and companies which

specialized in electrical and mechanical devices.

Nikola Tesla’s involved himself with a lot of inventions, discoveries, and major projects during

his life on earth. The slide will outline some of the inventions and discoveries he made,

according to Kak 20 17, Nikola Tesla invented wireless technology which was suitable for

electrical engineering and science students. According to Martin 20 l7, Tesla invented lighting

which has greatly impacted and inspired technology today. According to Sharpe 2020, Mr.

Nicola Tesla invented the Magnetic field Strength which helped different people in advancing

their lives especially medical practitioners in understanding the inventor. One of the major

projects was when he was awarded a contract to build the first power apparatus at Niagara Falls

which contained his name and patent numbers.

The next slide will outline his contribution to society, Scientific scholars, different nations, and

the whole world, Nikola Tesla’s contributed to the world’s electricity, Mitra (20 18), this invention

helped electrical engineering students and lecturers in understanding electricity and circuits. The

slide will also outline that Nikola Tesla discovered and displayed how turbomachine works which

brought attention to mechanical engineers who learned how the machine works. Wunsch 2018

states that Tesla’s previous work and inventions were suitable for engineering students, they used

the machines discovered to learn and invent new devices. The companies and laboratories

developed created employment for many people who improved their lives from the money earned.

After spending a lot of time discovering and changing the world for the better, his life had to

come to an end. The slide will discuss his end time and how he died, he died at the age of 86

years. While on his normal duties whereby he used to feed the pigeons at the cathedral and

library, he was hit by a speeding taxi and suffered minor injuries. He never went to the hospital

and due to his age and the injuries suffered he died at Hotel New Yorker alone. People mocked

his ideas to be science fiction, and some called him an alien, Sharpe (2020). Nikola Tesla was a

smart man and made very many important inventions that are utilized by many scientific scholars

today.

This slide will conclude the discussion carried out in the whole paper, the topic being based on

the famous scientist Nikola Tesla, his discoveries, inventions, and contribution to the field of

science, to the society and world at large was felt and he will leave to be remembered and

recognized. The last slide will entail the references used in the study.
