Student Experiments:
• Categorise the types of energy and define what energy is
• Experiment with kinetic and potential energy and construct an energy chain reaction
• Convert energy from one form to another and determine which materials can be used to make specific energy transfers
• Learn the Laws of Conservation of Mass and Energy
• Explore how energy is used in modern society
• Make a flywheel generator, take apart a motor and spin a turbine to understand how electrical power is currently generated
• Compare wind, water, coal, natural gas and nuclear power sources
• Investigate energy choices for heating and transportation
• Quantify and explore fossil fuel emissions and its impact on the climate
• Spin a propeller with a solar cell, build a solar car and learn how they work
• Discuss solar energy, its peaks and valleys
• Launch a super capacitor car and an electric car
• Build a battery with multiple cells to light an LED
• Discover how solar cells work
Features:
Teacher's Packs are designed so that students have their own booklet and materials.
The pack consists largely of non-consumables and uses robust components designed for years of classroom use.
Extensions to the main projects are feasible as there are sufficient supplies for all.
