Time to turn learning into action! Students work together in groups to carry out energy investigations and develop project action plans to deliver energy savings. In the investigation sessions, students develop a project and action plan which covers:
- Scoping and preparing for the investigation
- Discovering tools to help them conduct their investigation
- Action planning and permissions
- Conducting investigations
- Reporting findings and calculating potential savings
- Communication plan to other students and teachers
Our involvement in these sessions is flexible, depending on student needs.
