Description

The project plan includes five sessions/lesson activities, including: • TRACKING THE POWER - FROM SOURCE TO HOME • PYLON POWER - DESIGNING THE INFRASTRUCTURE & LEARNING ABOUT ENERGY CONSUMPTION • BUILDING THE SMART OCEAN CITY USING RENEWABLE OCEAN ENERGY RESOURCES • PRESENTATIONS & EVALUATION Students are "Ocean Energy Engineers" on a mission to save the planet by developing sustainable ocean energy devices, pylons, and renewable ocean energy solutions for a smart city. They will learn about the national grid system and the importance of infrastructure that enables everyone to have electric power. They will also learn about pylons and energy consumption in our homes. As a more extensive project, the students will design and build smart cities, considering how their cities can run on renewable energy sources around Ireland.
