Energy Education Resources for Teachers and Parents

Just about everything has potential energy stored in it. The problem is releasing that energy to be able to do some work.

A tiny peanut contains stored chemical energy. When we eat them, the stored energy is converted by our bodies so we can do work. We can also use the energy in a peanut to heat a container of water.

Jacqueline Said:

Improve Sceince Teaching Methods?

We Answered:

Unfortunately I'm not very experienced but it wouldn't be hard to improve science teaching methods from my high school days. My high school science experience was mostly PowerPoint lectures.....very easy to improve on that. Use inquiry based teaching instead of the direct method of instruction. the most important thing is to find ways to get students involved - labs, discussions (not lectures), debates, maybe incorporate some creative writing instead of just lab reports. One teacher I have talked to makes his students teach their parents a lesson and reflect on that experience.

Hope I was of some help to you.

Brenda Said:

what is the advantageof using experiment in teaching in science?

We Answered:

The experiment allows a student to develop the use of scientific method.
Experiments should be open-ended rather than being recipes (although these do have uses).
Students should be encouraged to hypothesise and support their ideas with theory. They should plan their methods, collect reliable data and ensure that it is both repeated and congruent.
Analysis should be quantitative if possible and related back to the hypothesis. The experiment should then be evaluated and ideas proposed for improving or extending the investigation.
