Using the resource is probably the most efficient way to learn about efficiency. The 18th installment of a 25-part Energy Systems and Solutions unit has pupils investigate energy efficiency through discussions and associated activities....

Students simulate lizard temperature regulation. In this Science lesson, students use a thermometer as a pretend lizard. Students must keep their lizard within a particular temperature range while moving through a specified course.

Controlling the efficiency of a greenhouse is a mathematical task. A collaborative project challenges learners to create an efficiency plan for a closed greenhouse. Using algebraic equations, they consider a set of constraints, design...

Students work with thermometers to complete problems about temperature. They investigate cooling patterns, how location affects temperature, and what happens when water having different temperature is mixed. They measure temperature in...

Students evaluate energy-related purchases. In this consumer awareness instructional activity, students visit an appliance store and rank the products' cost effectiveness by using a mathematical formula.

Don't waste any more energy trying to find a great resource on energy. The third installment of a 25-part Energy Systems and Solutions unit focuses on energy use in pupils' lives. They consider how their daily routines consume energy and...

Students investigate Newton’s Law of Cooling.  In this Algebra II/ Pre-Calculus instructional activity, students explore exponential regression as they conduct an experiment to simulate the temperature variations that occur as a...

Students complete a worksheet that asks them to calculate the true energy cost of various appliances. They compare appliances with energy saving features, rebates and other economical incentives.
