Energy Ecosystem Foundation continues to evolve.
Upcoming videos and lesson plans will address other important energy challenges, as outlined in the Video Roadmap.
Proposed topics include the following:
What is the Environmental Lifecycle Impact of Energy?
The Socio-Economic Realities of Energy
The Future of Energy
Energy Ecosystem Foundation is striving to become the go-to hub of energy materials for classrooms, linking teachers to available materials not only generated by EEF, but also by other similar associations.
The students of today will be developing solutions to energy challenges. We want to ensure teachers have the support they need to provide students with the ability to face these challenges with knowledge and insight.
