E-Module
Welcome
to
the "World of Energy" Solar E Module
Requesting parties are responsible for pick up and return of the unit. The unit folds down into a small cabinet size on rolling casters (32" x 24" x 20"), weighing about 80 lbs. The unit fits well in an SUV or van but probably will not fit in the trunk of a regular passenger vehicle.
"A World of Energy" Solar Electric Education Module (E-Mod) Smart Growth Advocates received a $5,000 grant award in January 2007 from the CDPHE to acquire an E-Mod to educate students on renewable energy. The E-Mod is a portable experimental tool developed by Sunsense, the educational division of Earthsense, which uses solar energy to actively engage students in learning about important energy-related concepts and topics.
The energy curriculum (pdf)
uses a
scaffolding approach to build the knowledge and critical-thinking
skills necessary for understanding important energy concepts and
topics. The curriculum consists of a 3-chapter, 20 lesson sequence,
which is highly adaptable to a wide variety of curricular
objectives. Smart Growth Advocates have made the E-Mod
available
to the Pueblo community and educators. If you are interested
in
using the E-Mod, please contact
us for
information on borrowing the unit. Read February
14, 2007 news coverage and our flyer
or our February 2007 press release to
learn more
about the E-Module.
