Conservation Station: Educator Resources
Explore the unexpected connections at the heart of the energy-water nexus and discover how you and your students can conserve water and energy at school and at home.
Conservation Station: Creating a More Resourceful World aims to create a nationwide dialogue on the importance of students’ understanding of current and future energy needs, resource utilization and conservation.
The program materials dive into the relationship between energy and water and how innovative technologies are working to conserve both resources through the core pillars of resourcefulness: effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability.
Discover the relationship between energy, water and food by identifying solutions to hypothetical challenge scenarios that require them to sustainably manage both resources and waste.
Develop a hybrid school schedule and learn how in return of decreasing our carbon footprint, we also save money that goes towards gasoline.
In this activity, students will study how solar electricity can be generated, stored, and utilized in homes. Students will be given a small solar panel to test and improve.
This activity demonstrates the conversion of energy into usable forms through a demonstration showing the conversion of potential chemical energy to heat energy.
In this activity, students will consider and estimate their consumption of energy used in the home, transportation, food, housing, and for goods and services, while estimating the amount of waste they generate.
Build and test a desalination plant using a thermal process approach to help students to learn how to make alternative water resources.
This activity demonstrates methods of testing the purity of water and applying their knowledge of filtration and impurity detection to better assess how cities might improve regulating and cleaning their water.
