Reducing energy usage in the home saves money, increases energy security and reduces the need to burn unsustainable fossil fuels. The first step in doing this is monitoring how much energy is...

The focus of these resources explores climate change and the energy security of Africa. It provides information and activities to highlight how hydro-electric-power is the sustainable way for Africa to achieve energy security in the future, but how this might be impacted by climate change. The student activities in...

The relationship between energy and states of matter is sometimes difficult for students to comprehend. This activity helps to reinforce the notion that, when energy is added to a system, the molecules themselves do not change but their motion and relative positions do change.

While the model is a...
