What educators are saying

Students enjoyed defending each of their renewable energy sources as "the best"! The CER focus was helpful in guiding them to deeper understanding and solid support for their arguments.

Description

* This is the PDF version. I also have an EDITABLE Google Doc version of this product. See my store.

Give your students the opportunity to research and present about a renewable energy source that is interesting to them! This project includes options for many of the common renewable energy sources but also includes some new cutting edge technologies.

This product includes:

-A student instruction sheet and scoring guide

-Three guided student research pages and student diagram page

-Audience note pages

-CER assessment to be used after the presentation

I typically allow two weeks for this project.

Students will complete research and the preparation pages, then create a poster following the guidelines. I have students create a trifold poster board but any type of poster will work. This could also be done as a Google Slide presentation. I use this with an NGSS Physics class and have always gotten amazing quality presentations from this assignment! It would be perfect for Earth or Environmental Science as well.

NGSSHS-ESS3-2
Evaluate competing design solutions for developing, managing, and utilizing energy and mineral resources based on cost-benefit ratios. Emphasis is on the conservation, recycling, and reuse of resources (such as minerals and metals) where possible, and on minimizing impacts where it is not. Examples include developing best practices for agricultural soil use, mining (for coal, tar sands, and oil shales), and pumping (for petroleum and natural gas). Science knowledge indicates what can happen in natural systems—not what should happen.
NGSSHS-ESS3-4
Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems. Examples of data on the impacts of human activities could include the quantities and types of pollutants released, changes to biomass and species diversity, or areal changes in land surface use (such as for urban development, agriculture and livestock, or surface mining). Examples for limiting future impacts could range from local efforts (such as reducing, reusing, and recycling resources) to large-scale geoengineering design solutions (such as altering global temperatures by making large changes to the atmosphere or ocean).
