25. Group level activity - Solving the
energy crisis by designing or
developing
• Students are invited to work in groups to contribute to
solving the energy crisis by designing or developing
something. Their contribution can be in one of the following
three ways:
a. Contributing to public education on energy crisis and
energy conservation: For example by designing artifacts
(Posters, songs, movie clips, animations, etc.) that will help
the public to understand better about the energy crisis and
energy conservation, and what they can do to help
b. Designing technology that will help solve the energy
crisis: The “product” can be an actual artifact that can be
operated or it can just be a design plan for an artifact that can
help tackle the energy crisis problem by technology
c. Developing energy conservation
policies/plans/proposals, with rationales, for the

Hinweis der Redaktion
Hi, I am Hidy. I am very happy that I can participate in this Knowledge Building - Dragon Lead Project, and have the opportunities to collaborate with so many teachers from both Barcelona and Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, schools participating in the Knowledge Building Project includes Hop lap College, Ming Kei College, HKUGA Primary School, and also my school, Pui Kiu College.
Our Plan consists of 2 phases, Phase 1 is initiated by introducing the topic: “IF ENERGY IS CONSERVED, WHY IS THERE IS STILL ENERGY CRISIS?” and Phase 2 would be focus on Deepening Understanding & also Starting the Collaboration. One particular interest among the teachers is to investigate students' conceptual change on "conservation of energy". Once the question is given to the students, they may develop their own viewpoints and the rationale behind. In order to discuss with others, they have to provide evidence to justify their viewpoints. As a result, the aim of the phase 1 activity is to articulate students' concepts between energy and energy source; and the relationship between the fuel and energy. Seed questions posted by teachers in this phase first focus on the "whats" in energy Crisis, and then we will scaffold students to deal with "why" or "how" questions in Energy Crisis .
Based on our earlier discussion with HKU citers, In phases II, each student will be working in 3 views, from the Class level, and Group level, to the Community level. For the Class level activity, students have to tackle problems of understanding, For the Group level activity, students have to solve the energy crisis by designing or developing something, For the Community level activity, with the help of HKU citers, we have identified 6 thoughtful notes from students’ earlier work to stimulate the discussion of energy and related concepts further. Oops, maybe I have already talked to much, it’s time to pass the microphone to the Golden Dragons from Hop Lap College.
