Renewable Energy Education: KidWind Educator Workshop

October 13 @ 8:00 AM - October 24 @ 2:00 PM

$25

Learn how to explore the power of wind with your students! In this workshop you will review energy and electricity basics, design and test blades in a wind tunnel, explore related KEEP energy education resources, and preview ready-to-use renewable energy curriculum.

Participants also learn about the Wisconsin KidWind Challenge that takes place in spring each year and gain tips for coaching student teams through the process of designing and constructing small-scale turbines. Educators will leave with the resources and confidence to use renewable energy as a lens into hands-on science, technology, and engineering exploration in the classroom (and you’ll get some free gear, too)!

Recommended for teachers of grades 4-12.
