Based on the idea that active participation stimulates the processes by which learning takes place, this document provides teachers and students with a variety of information and learning activities dealing with energy. Concepts about energy are presented through the use of laboratory experiments, demonstrations, worksheet exercises and individual and group activities. The material focuses on: (1) kinetic and potential energy; (2) energy sources; (3) petroleum and its uses; (4) soap and detergents; (5) automobile designs; (6) coal products and uses; (7) the effect of air pollution on nylon; (8) electricity; (9) conducting heat; (10) natural gas; (11) hydroelectric power; (12) water use and conservation; (13) solar energy; (14) steam power; (15) energy conservation techniques; and (16) nuclear energy. Included are energy games, along with reproducible handouts for many of the activities, quizzes, self-checks, and an answer key. (TW)
