This semester, for my alternative energy systems course, we are asked to design or create something. For my project, I wanted to educate middle school students about the importance of sustainability. I began by creating a power point with basic concepts of sustainable living, renewable energies and sustainable homes. Then, I designed a lesson plan detailing exactly what I would say to the children. Lastly, I asked the students to draw and design their ideal sustainable home including some of the things that I told them about. The project was successful and the kids were fired up about their designs.
Understanding the market[edit | edit source]
Sustainability needs to be incorporated into early education. As an adult, I had no idea that sustainability could be career focus or how much it could change my life. If my generation had learned more about sustainability at a young age, things could be different in the world today.
Project goals[edit | edit source]
The goal of this project is to improve the future of planet Earth and the lives of the global citizens. It will achieved through education.
