The teaching techniques presented in this booklet are designed to provide students with concepts which relate to the energy crisis and energy conservation. The techniques are not presented in the form of completed lesson plans, but rather are intended to act as starting points for further development by the teacher. General activities for students are suggested for the topics of conservation of energy; production of electricity and heat; social impact, political implications, economics, and geography of the energy crisis; and energy in transportation, in the home, in the school, and in the community. Twenty-two projects related to the energy crisis and energy conservation also are suggested. Tips on how to conserve energy and several diagrams concerning energy topics are provided. (DT)
