The Schoolhouse Energy Efficiency Demonstration (SEED) program was developed to assist schools in reducing the impact of rising energy costs. Developed as part of the SEED program, this publication was designed to provide background information on the energy issue and to briefly describe what future energy sources may be. It includes: (1) background information on the energy issue, discussing energy conservation, oil and natural gas, coal, nuclear energy, synthetic fuels, and renewable energy resources; (2) examples of what schools are doing about energy, including the role of teachers in energy conservation; (3) suggested ways in which a school building can be used to teach energy, emphasizing energy conservation; (4) a "Student Schoolhouse Energy Survey," for student/teacher use; (5) examples of how energy education can be used outside in the classroom and in extracurricular and community projects; and (6) an exercise that will help teachers "energize" existing curricula. This exercise consists of listing traditional concepts considered essential in the teaching of a subject area and, for each concept, identifying and writing down the hidden energy concept and developing an activity (or modifying an existing one) which emphasizes the hidden energy concept. Sample lesson plans from other energy education programs are included. (Author/JN)
