Week 3 - Energy 2: Sustainable Generation
Required Materials for review:
Reading and video hosted on Weebly (web-based, asynchronous) - Readings and a video on sustainable generation of electricity will be provided to the students. This will cover solar power, wind, hydro, and geothermal. This content will be posted on the site from week 1 and it is expected that the student has reviewed the material prior to the class meeting.
Required activities:
Class meeting over blackboard collaborate (synchronously) - The class as a whole will meet at a set time on Blackboard Collaborate. For those who are not able to attend, the session will be recorded for review at their convenience.
Required assignment:
Discussion / debate on forum - Students will respond to the material in one of three sections: I feel sustainable energy generation is the responsibility of individuals, the utility, or a combination. Toward the end of the week students will respond to at least one peer in each of the other categories. The responses are meant to be thoughtful and to provide an reasoning for why it should be a different way. Discussion is encouraged to continue from there but not required.
