Sources of Energy
You Are the Energy EXPERT!
We are very familiar with the different forms of energy, namely kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy, electrical energy, heat energy, sound energy, and even nuclear energy.
However, there are other forms of energy that we can tap on. Do you know any?
The Task
You are to organise yourselves into groups, with five experts in each group.
Expert 1: Geothermal energy
Expert 2: Biofuels and Fossil fuels
Expert 3: Solar Energy
Expert 4: Hydro-electrical energy
Expert 5: Wind energy
As an expert, you have to be able to:
- define the energy
- describe the source of the energy (where does it come from?)
- give examples/ case study where the energy is used
- describe their impact on the environment
During your ICT lesson, you would learn how to search for information effectively.
With the information gathered, the group members would come together for sharing. Then as a group, design a set of powerpoint slides to teach secondary school students about alternative sources energy.
Upload your slides onto AsknLearn. This project will contribute 10% of your CA2. Deadline: 25 June 2012
