Description
An intuitive, state-of-the-art kit that demonstrates how reable energy is generated and consumed Designed for both home and school use, this comprehensive and engaging curriculum gives young learners the tools to explore a key field in the future of our planet. Through simple models that are quick to assemble and that incorporate valuable components such as a solar panel and voltage/current meter, kids can explore relevant and important concepts related to alternative energy and sustainable living. Models include a sleek electric car that can be powered by a battery or directly by solar energy, a model house with solar panel, buzzer, and light, and more. Test out the hand crank generator to get a feel for how traditional fossil fuel plants create power or capture the energy of the wind to power a windmill model. A 32-page, full-color manual guides model building and explains what electricity is and how it€â€žÂ¢s generated, the difference between fossil fuel and green energy generation, wind and solar energy, batteries and electric vehicles, and voltage and current. Teachers and students can pair the easy-to-read digital meter that measures voltage and current with a micro:bit (sold separately) to collect data digitally, allowing users to investigate reable energy like never before.
Key Features :
• COMPREHENSIVE, CURRICULUM-DRIVEN SCIENCE KIT: This state-of-the-art kit, designed for both classroom and home use, explores how reable energy is generated and consumed through hands-on activities and projects.,QUALITY COMPONENTS & MODULAR BUILDING SYSTEM: Durable plastic parts designed for long-term use and experimentation include a solar panel, wind turbine parts, and more, enabling kids to build several models such as a windmill, hand-crank generator, LED buzzer, electric car, and beyond. Easy-to-use system allows for pieces to be swapped, combined, and reconfigured in multiple ways.,HANDS-ON, PROJECT-BASED LEARNING: Visualize and experience different types of energy generation through the models of real-life devices and machines and better understand the concepts related to alternative energy and sustainable living. Also compatible with micro:bit (sold separately) for ease of digital data collection.,COMPATIBLE WITH NGSS: The 24 experiments align with several Next Generation Science Standards, cross-cutting concepts, and disciplinary core ideas for easy integration into at-home or classroom curricula.,CLASSROOM RESOURCES AVAILABLE: In addition to the 32-page illustrated manual, printable worksheets to guide student learning are available online.
