Renewable Energy Experiments & Design Challenge Pack

Renewable Energy Experiments & Design Challenge Pack
Science, Life Sciences, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Earth Sciences, Environmental Science, Geology, Space, Biology, Nature & Plants, Technology, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Workbooks, Worksheets, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Lesson Plans, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes, Tests

Using the Renewable Energy Experiments and Design Challenge Kit – A rigorous classroom-tested STEM Curriculum that combines Physics, Environmental Science and Engineering Design – will allow you to help your students think like engineers in their development of renewable energy solutions. This kit provides all of the resources necessary for a 4–6 week exploration of renewable technologies related to our decarbonized future, from the quantum principles behind photovoltaic cell technology to the fluid dynamics governing how hydroelectric turbine work. Each of following modules combines a conceptual theory with supplemental worksheets to enhance learning through hands-on experience. The culmination of each module will be students participating in a high-stakes design challenge (Zero-Emission Island) to develop a resilient microgrid that integrates the use of solar, wind, pumped hydroelectric, biogas and battery storage energy. In addition to individual student worksheet documents, this kit includes a comprehensive teacher implementation guide, timeline for pacing to meet state or national standards (NGSS & AP), student use rubrics, lab setup instructions that outline acceptable ranges for outcome data variation, and a complete answer key for ALL (10) worksheets included in this kit. Additionally, this kit includes multiple real-life case studies of renewable energy technologies (i.e., Hornsdale Power Reserve, Hywind Tampen Floating Wind Farm, Agrivoltaics at Jack’s Solar Garden) that provide students with practical applications of the theoretical concepts they have studied. As such, regardless of the type of renewable energy unit you teach (i.e. AP Environmental Science Course, Physics Elective or Engineering Pathway) through the depth of the 10 different renewable energy modules offered within this kit along with the flexibility within the teacher implementation guide and provided assessment tools, making this pack is perfect to help you deliver an unforgettable renewable energy experience for your students. Highlights: 10 complete modules (solar, wind, water/ocean, geothermal, biomass, storing energy, combined energy and grid, life cycle analysis, and LCOE economics) culminating with an island design challenge, Worksheets for students with practice, data analysis, and critical thinking skills, Answer key fully worked out with all qualitative explanations, Teacher's guide (nightly admin book, where applicable) with pacing, aligned to standards (NGSS HS-PS2-1, HS-PS3-3 and HS-ETS1-2) by common failure points, with tolerances in lab wiring, Visuals of energy flow paths, how turbines work, and the engineering process Target audience: Advanced Placement / International Baccalaureate (IB), Grades 9-12 and Entry Level College Environmental or Engineering Class. Reasons Schools & Parents Like It : Ready-made curriculum based on set of standards saves the teacher lots of time (many hours), so everything needed for a complete lesson (worksheets, labs, rubric) are able to be printed out, or assigned electronically. Real live examples of real live engineering solutions to energy issues for 2021 (Hornsdale battery, floating offshore wind turbines, agrivoltaics) will be shown through very useful case studies. Higher order thinking will develop as the students no longer use simply memorization, but will be able to calculate efficiencies, design systems, troubleshoot failure, and validate their choice with data. All instructor is given with teaching easiness through complete instructor support: flags common mistakes with students, lab data tolerance ranges, and answer keys for each piece of lab to help less knowledgeable (or skilled) instructors teach well. Materials can be flexible and modular - they are usable to complete a full 4 or 6 week unit or to supplement or complement an existing unit. Also will work in each of the 3 delivery formats - in-person, hybrid, or remote. Classes to Target By Grade Level: Using mathematics (cubic wind power law, LCOE, Betz efficiency, potential energy equations) as well as laboratory analyses and synthesis tasks this PDF would serve as a perfect fit for: 10–12 Grade (Primarily); 9th Grade Advanced STEM or Honors (with some exceptions); AP Environmental Science; AP Physics I or II (or both); IB Physics or Environmental Systems & Society; High School Engineering OR PLTW (Project Lead the Way); Introduction To Renewable Energy OR Sustainability Engineering In College; Homeschool High School Science Curriculum; STEM Areas In General.

This 55-page comprehensive, interdisciplinary curriculum will allow you to turn your classroom into an environmental action lab focused on ocean plastic pollution. Designed to bridge cutting-edge marine science with civic advocacy, it provides students with opportunities to move beyond passive learning and into actual environmental action based on evidence. The curriculum consists of three phases that take students through a complete educational process. In Phase 1, Theoretical Framework gives students all of the background knowledge necessary for them as citizens to become advocates for change through evidence-based advocacy strategies (i.e., the Coriolis Effect; chemical properties of polymers; biodegradability; accumulation and magnification of toxins in food webs; marine ecosystems) designed using science and basic tenets of physics & chemistry that are used in designing marine policies. In Phase 2, Application Phase, students have the opportunity to apply what they have learned through 10 worksheets that require analytical thinking skills (i.e., interpreting data sets; calculating numbers; ecological reasoning; evaluating corporations' environmental claims) in the creation of project proposals, respectively, regarding greenwashing, greenhouse gas emission reductions. In Phase 3, Instructional Materials, teacher support is provided (i.e., graphic organizers; rubric; answer keys with rational explanations; pacing guide; differentiation strategies, etc.) for successful implementation of the curriculum across disciplines. Students will have the opportunity to analyze real-world examples of ocean plastic pollution facts, including: the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, Henderson Island, Midway Atoll; develop a quantitative analysis of the rate of time it takes for PVC plastic to decompose; create maps showing the locations of the locations of plastic and non-plastic debris along ocean currents; analyze data related to the successful clean up of beaches and oceans and use such information in forming international legislation that seeks to eliminate as much plastic pollution as possible through public awareness campaigns such as "I Love My Ocean" public service announcements etc. Students compose policy memos formally addressed to elected representatives. The materials will help students build skills and competencies in the areas of data literacy, systems thinking, scientific writing, persuasive communication and authentic political agency through a pressing global issue — marine plastic pollution. Topics Covered: Environmental Science, Earth Science, Marine Biology, Chemistry (Polymer Science), Economics, Civics/Government, ELA (Persuasive Writing, Research), Mathematics (Data Analysis, Percent Calculations, Unit Conversions).
