Seng, Thomas; Sasso, Pietro A. – Higher Education Politics & Economics, 2023
The purpose of this convergent parallel mixed-methods instrumental case study was to examine the feasibility of Solar Photovoltaics (PV) as an economic and environmental sustainability tool for higher education while, at the same time, gauging essential university stakeholder knowledge, opinions and beliefs regarding sustainable development,…

Kishore, Padmini; Kisiel, James – International Journal of Environmental and Science Education, 2013
Although studies examining student understanding of key concepts are common throughout the science education literature, few have examined science concepts linked to conservation or environmental issues such as global warming and alternative energy. How students make sense of these complex concepts has the potential to influence their role as…

Arguel, P.; Massiot, I. – Physics Education, 2020
Today, solar cells are very familiar to the broad public, and everyone has noticed their particular geometry resembling a square with rounded-off corners. However, the rationale behind this geometry is little known. This paper presents a precise study of the geometry of silicon solar cells and its evolution since their appearance in the early…

Bauer, Christina A.; Hamada, Terianne Y.; Kim, Hyesoo; Johnson, Mathew R.; Voegtle, Matthew J.; Emrick, Matthew S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
Quantum dots (QDs) are useful for demonstrating the particle-in-a-box (PIB) model utilized in quantum chemistry, and can readily be applied to a discussion of both thermodynamics and kinetics in an undergraduate laboratory setting. Modifications of existing synthetic procedures were used to create QDs of different sizes and compositions (CdS…
