Overview
Overview
Take your students on a critical thinking evaluation of electricity and get the big picture on generation and consumption. This unique program will engage students in meaningful energy education through action. The program includes an interactive presentation and hands-on component where students build either solar-powered lanterns, or small hydrogen fuel cell cars in a workshop. We’ll happily work within your bells times, but double blocks ensure students have enough time for discussion and careful construction.
- Evaluate sources of energy and investigate electrical technologies
- Develop a global energy perspective and think critically to solve electricity challenges
- Work together in small groups
*Due to the number of building kits available we suggest a maximum of 35 students per workshop.
