Learning intentions:
Students will...
- investigate various types of energy, along with their transfers and transformations, through hands-on experiments
- apply their knowledge to explain to an audience how energy is produced from renewable sources
- learn about occupations in the renewable energy sector that require communicating about clean energy.
Success criteria:
Students can...
- classify various types of energy in renewable energy systems, such as solar, batteries, wind and hydro, and describe the energy transfers and transformations occurring in each system
- conduct experiments or demonstrations to observe and explain energy transfers and transformations in different renewable energy sources
- develop communication skills by applying their knowledge of renewable energy occupations and their understanding of renewable energy systems to inform an audience about how renewable energy is harnessed and its benefits to society and the environment.
