1, CURRICULUM MATERIALS
This section lists publications written for the classroom teacher that describe units, lessons, or activities intended for qlassro6m use, as well as textbooks. The energy data used in some of these publications is out of date, but the educational design may still be of interest to curriculum specialists. The materials listed vary greatly in quality and disinterestedness. There Js no escaping-the need for the curriculum specialist to acquire a background in the subject matter prior to making recommendations for adoptions.

The booklet contains learning activities for introducing energy and conservation concepts into the existing elementary school curriculum. The activities were developed by Palm Beach County teachers during a one-week workshop. A framework of ideas is divided into three functional categories: universe of energy, living systems and energy, and social systems and energy. The first two categories outline scientific concepts fundamental to an understanding of basic energy ideas and energy flow models of which human beings are a part. The third category sets forth basic concepts in social systems, including governmental, economic, and moral systems, the understanding of which is vital in making decisions affecting production, distribution, and consumption of energy resources. Sixteen sample lessons are provided for grades 1-3 and 19 for grades 1-6. Activity ideas focus on topics such as the sun as a source of energy, fossil energy, and conservation of scarce resources. The majority of activities consists of scientific experiments; other activities include puzzles, drawing exercises, and cut and paste activities. The activities are suggestive, rather than prescriptive; teachers are encouraged to adapt and expand the activities. (DRS)

This instructional unit for the second grade is intended to stimulate the child's curiosity to know more and to grasp relationships through a blending of ideas about energy with a study of the effect of the use of energy on the livelihood of people in the community. There are four lessons in the unit. The first, Introduction to Energy, deals with the question, "What is energy and energy conservation?" The second lesson, Community Workers Who Work Directly With the Sources of Energy, discusses farmers, grocers, food processors, oil workers, gas station attendants, and meter readers. The third lesson is entitled Community Workers Whose Work Depends on a Continual Supply of Energy. The fourth lesson is Community Workers Who Make Decisions About Energy. Each lesson contains complete teacher and student materials including background readings, objectives, teaching strategies, and suggestions for extending the learning outside the classroom. (BB)

Energy-Environment Mini-Unit Guide: ED111664
This unit is one part of a three-part National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) series on energy-environment. The goal of this NSTA project is to create a collection of mini-units that provide materials for science and social studies teachers in grades K-12. These materials are intended to make teaching more interdisciplinary and to stimulate decision making in young children. Activities are sought that will enable students to: understand and use existing fundamental concepts in the energy-environment area; identify and evaluate personal and community practices, attitudes, and values related to energy-environment issues; and make effective decisions and/or define their views of appropriate actions on energy-environment issues.
NSTA Energy-Environment Source Book: ED111662
This source book, one part of a three-part NSTA series on energy-environment, is written for teachers who wish to incorporate material on the complex subject of energy into their teaching. This work is divided into two volumes, each with numerous tables and figures, along with appendices containing a glossary, mathematics primer, heat engine descriptions, and nuclear energy discussion. Volume 1 (Energy, Society, and the Environment) deals with energy and its relationship with conservation, the environment, the economy, and strategies for energy conservation. In Volume 2 (Energy, Its Extraction, Conversion, and Use), topics discussed include the rate of energy consumption, future sources of energy, and the increased cost of energy. (Author/CP)
Energy-Environment Materials Guide: ED111663
This publication, one part of a three-part NSTA series on energy-environment, is a sampling of current energy literature. The references are divided into four separate categories, each directed for a specific audience: readings for teachers, readings for students (grades 8-10); Readings for students (grades 5-9); and readings for students (grades K-6). Included in four appendices are guides for films and audio-visual materials, curriculum materials, sources of information, and government documents. (Author/CP

The causes of the energy crisis are many, and the solutions are complex. Since every person in the world is affected, every person should have an understanding of the energy shortage problem. This unit is designed around the following two ideas: (1) to develop an understanding of energy and the need for it, and (2) to understand some of the causes, effects, and solutions of the energy crisis. It attempts to present information regarding energy problems for level II and III educable mentally retarded students. Included are four topics: (1) What Is Energy, (2) Energy Fuels, (3) How We Use Energy, and (4) Conservation of Energy. For each topic there are behavioral objectives, student activities, and teacher suggestions. The numbers in parentheses by the activity number indicate the objectives the activity helps develop. The unit also includes goals and objectives, an objective summary sheet, a unit time line, a materials sheet, and 20 appendixes which contain various teaching aids related to the activities and which are also suitable for duplication.

According to this guide, the major goal of this minicourse, developed for secondary and adult education, is to have the student gather pertinent information relative to the generation of electrical energy and to draw his own conclusions concerning the need for this energy supply. If in his mind such a need exists, he should make a judgment as to the methods by which the energy should be produced. The job of the teacher is to "tell it like it is" and then to encourage the student to make his own judgments based on the evaluation of this information. Each chapter of this teacher's guide corresponds to a chapter in the text. There are five sections in each chapter dealing with behavioral objectives, suggested activities for that chapter, audiovisual aids, references, and selected readings to provide background material for the teacher. At the end of the teacher's guide is a decision-making model to help the reader analyze the information he has received. There are three appendixes: the first concerning laboratory safety rules for working with radioactive substances, the second containing names and addresses of environmental action organizations, and the third an achievement test.
