Learners construct an electricity-generating wind turbine out of a plastic bottle.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

This activity models the necessary balance of creating power and cleaning up its associated waste. Learners participate in a game where they attempt to move forward toward a goal.

Learners build a wind turbine and test it to see how much energy is created.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners investigate passive solar building design with a focus solely on heating.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from
