Renewable Energy for Educators

Educators attending this summer workshop will learn about the impacts that our energy use has on the planet and how to best teach youth about solutions:  energy conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy technologies.  Each day will include a hands-on element that can be employed in the classroom.  In addition, participants will walk away with practical knowledge that they can apply in their own lives. Integrating renewable energy education into youth development can provide an element

This accredited three-day intensive teacher training workshop focuses on longer hands-on renewable energy and natural building projects. Participants will split up into small groups to work on a different project each day.  In three days you'll build a model solar village complete with its own solar-powered grid, assemble solar suitcase lighting systems for developing-world clinics and make a birdhouse using natural building techniques.
