Abstract | Many students (and adults) do not understand a basic tenet of energy literacy: how electricity is produced. They do not know how coal or other fossil fuels are used to make electricity, nor do they understand how nuclear power, hydroelectric power, and wind power work. The author developed a series of lessons to help students understand how electricity is made from energy sources and the value of producing electricity in the developing world without using fossil fuels. These lessons presented in this article, which align with the Next Generation Science Standards, begin with a simple prompt. Most students respond to the prompt with either "Coal is burned to make electricity" or "I don't know." (ERIC). |
