DESCRIPTION
PREPARATION:
Find books and internet sites on renewable energy in the Mediterranean. The teacher can also target his country or region as a research area.
IMPLEMENTATION:
The teacher introduces the activity and divides students in 3/4-scholars groups.
The teacher asks student to do some research (information, photos or images) on renewable energy (general definition, sources) using the books available and internet sites.
The teacher lets the students summarize the different sources of renewable energy and choose a specific topic of energy / group.
Each group looks for illustrations on the specific sources of energy, such as hydroelectric power, and finds an image and a small explanation corresponding to the energy production system.
After the research, each group summarize the information found on a panel or on a software (power point) or a dedicated website to create a poster.
The teacher lets each group present its work and do a final synthesis and discussion about what has been learned during the activity.
