You Decide


Your parents, impressed with your new-found knowledge in the area of alternative energy, want to know which technology would be best for your home and your budget.

1. Based on your classroom knowledge, define passive solar, active solar, and wind energy. Draw a sketch to accompany each definition.

2. Draw a sketch of your home, noting where the windows are in relationship to N, S, E, or W.

3. List three pieces of evidence for the technology you choose. This is based on work done in class.

4. Find the cost of the technology you choose. This is based on Internet research. At least 3 URLs must be listed, along with the cost at each website.

Finally, check out EcoGeek to find two additional pieces of evidence that support your idea. Make certain you reference the title of the blog post, or the URL where you found the information.

This is due on MONDAY, 9/28, at the beginning of class.
