UNIT 7 OVERVIEW<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Unit 7 – Generating Energy<\/strong> – is comprised of 6 activities that have been informed by the ENERGE Energy Literacy Framework. A guide to the ENERGE Energy Literacy Framework can be found on the main page. This unit  introduces the mechanisms through which energy is harnessed to power global industry and human activity. It aims to increase awareness of how energy resources are currently being developed and managed. This unit explores the topics of energy generation, renewable and non-renewable energy sources, energy resource development and the building and management of energy resources and infrastructure. In activities 7.1 and 7.2 students students evaluate specific energy types, practical energy sources and identify energy types in their surroundings. In activity 7.3 students write to their politicians about energy issues that are important to them. In activities 7.4 and 7.5 students enhance their understanding of how renewable energy resources are developed and managed by designing, building and evaluating renewable energy systems. In activity 7.6 students act as government officials and explore through role-play the economic, financial, social and environmental impacts of energy decisions. The activities in this unit are suitable for lower and upper second level students. The energy literacy outcomes, the associated skills & competencies addressed and how the activities link to the national curricula are outlined in tables 7.1-7.3. A summary and download link for each activity is provided below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
