| dc.description | The project plan includes four sessions/lesson activities, including: • MAPPING OCEAN ENERGY POTENTIAL • TIDAL ENERGY - FROM ANCIENT MILLS TO MODERN TURBINES • OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY - DESIGN AND ENGINEERING • WAVE POWER - HARNESSING THE OCEAN'S MOTION. Students will learn about the availability of ocean energy by reviewing maps of wave energy around the world. They will discuss the different types of ocean energy devices. The students will focus on learning about offshore wind turbines by constructing their own pinwheels and turbines. The students will consider the platforms offshore wind energy requires (fixed and floating). The students may also create interactive infographics showing offshore wind energy devices and platforms. The next session will cover learning about tidal energy devices, from ancient mills to modern innovative ideas for tidal and wave turbines. The students will also focus on wave power—harnessing the ocean's motion—and develop an understanding of waves and how they form. Following these activities, the students will create dioramas showcasing different wave energy devices and their operations. | en_US |
