Book Synopsis Learning about Energy by : David J. Rose
Download or read book Learning about Energy written by David J. Rose and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast eruption of books about energy that has appeared in the past decade has yielded few that could properly be called learning or. alternatively. teaching texts. This one is based principally on ten years of course offerings to senior undergraduates and graduate students at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology. and to middle-level and senior executives who attended accelerated study programs there. Teaching and learning are different; the first is an external act meant to stimulate the second. which is a very internal one. They are surely related. but it does not automatically follow that because I teach. the listener learns. This book. Learning about Energy. attempts to bridge that gap by putting in the hands of teachers. students. and independent readers a broad overview of the energy field. at a level that permits them to enter the more specialized topics with substantial perspective about the whole of it. The material is used for a one-semester course at M.I.T.. but could be one or two semesters there or elsewhere. according to how a thoughtful instructor might abridge some parts. or extend others via the numerous references. the problems at the ends of chapters. and current topics. Learning about Energy deals with energy as more than technology or eco nomics or any other specific parts. It deals with energy as part of the fabric of civilization. This requires some elaboration. As people and societies need food.

Download or read book Toward a Sustainable Energy Future written by International Energy Agency and published by OECD. This book was released on 2001 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manner in which we produce & consume energy is of crucial importance to sustainable development, as energy has deep relationships with each of its three dimensions -- the economy, the environment & social welfare. These relationships develop in a fast-moving & complex situation characterized by increasing globalisation, growing market liberalisation & new technologies, as well as by growing concerns about climate change & energy-supply security. In order to make energy an integral part of sustainable development, new policies need to be developed. Such policies must strike a balance among the three dimensions of sustainable development. They must reduce our exposure to large-scale risk. The IEA has synthesized a number of experiences with policies aimed to promote sustainable development. These experiences are reported in seven subject chapters on energy supply security, market reform, improving energy efficiency, renewable energies, sustainable transport, flexibility mechanisms for greenhouse gas reductions & on non-Member countries.

Book Synopsis Will China Save the Planet? by : Barbara Finamore
Download or read book Will China Save the Planet? written by Barbara Finamore and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-02 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that Trump has turned the United States into a global climate outcast, will China take the lead in saving our planet from environmental catastrophe? Many signs point to yes. China, the world's largest carbon emitter, is leading a global clean energy revolution, phasing out coal consumption and leading the development of a global system of green finance. But as leading China environmental expert Barbara Finamore explains, it is anything but easy. The fundamental economic and political challenges that China faces in addressing its domestic environmental crisis threaten to derail its low-carbon energy transition. Yet there is reason for hope. China's leaders understand that transforming the world's second largest economy from one dependent on highly polluting heavy industry to one focused on clean energy, services and innovation is essential, not only to the future of the planet, but to China's own prosperity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story "Emily The Little Sparks" is about a group of young children who learn about the importance of conserving energy and how to do it in fun and easy ways. The main character, a curious and energetic child named Emily, notices that her family's electricity bill is getting higher each month and wonders if there's something they can do to reduce their energy use. Emily's mother suggests that they make some small changes around the house, such as turning off lights when they leave a room, using energy-efficient light bulbs, and unplugging electronics when they're not in use. Emily and her friends decide to form a club called the "Little Sparks" to come up with more ideas and encourage their families to save energy too. Throughout the book, the Little Sparks embark on a series of fun and educational adventures that teach them about different forms of energy and how they can save it. They visit a wind farm and learn how wind turbines generate clean energy, build their own solar oven to cook snacks, and even put on a play about energy conservation for their school. By the end of the story, Emily and her friends have not only learned the importance of saving energy but have also made a positive impact on their families and community by reducing their energy use and inspiring others to do the same.

Book Synopsis Introducing Principles of Environmental Comfort and Control to Support Energy Conservation in Education Buildings by : Mahboobeh Keshavarz
Download or read book Introducing Principles of Environmental Comfort and Control to Support Energy Conservation in Education Buildings written by Mahboobeh Keshavarz and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction of green schools in the U.S. has considerably soared in recent years. Sustainably designed schools come from not only energy savings, but also from wide-ranging, measurable student health and performance benefits associated with natural light and improved environmental quality. The flip side of sustainable buildings, however, is that technology and controls introduce a new level of complexity compared to conventional buildings. Building owners and occupants find it very difficult to navigate these controls. This results in an increase in energy expenditure of the buildings, while users fail to appreciate their environmental comfort. Therefore, education on environmental comfort in spaces and identifying building controls seems of great significance. By the same token, decisions made with regard to the operation of the controls by building users need special attention as it is directly related to energy saving. This study investigates the effect of Project-based Learning on increasing the knowledge level and changing attitudes and actions of green building occupants to conserve energy. Project-based Learning is an educational method where individuals are required to learn and apply the concepts through experience. Using this method enables building users to find answers to the real-world problems by testing their ideas while working in groups. This learning approach has also the capability to translate into changes in building users' attitudes and actions related to energy conservation. To study the effect of this learning approach, data was collected from a total of 119 students from APD design community (Seaton and Regnier-newly constructed green school) at Kansas State University. A pre-knowledge survey was conducted initially to capture the general knowledge of the participants about comfort and controls. For the experiment, a series of class lectures and activities were devised to which students, based on the group they were categorized in, were exposed. The students for this study were grouped under three categories: 1) Traditional Learning group (control group) in which students required to only watch class lectures, 2) Individual Project-based Learning group in which students had to complete a series of individual class activities in addition to the tasks assigned to the control group, and 3) Peer Project-based Learning group in which students were asked to do peer-to-peer interaction for the class activities in addition to the tasks assigned to the other groups. After the experiment concluded, a follow-up survey was conducted to evaluate the impact of the activities on the improvements in knowledge and controls' operation level of participants based on students' self-report. By analyzing the results from the experiment, this study identifies that the groups that have received Project-based Learning module, generally, have used building lighting and dimming controls more than the control group. Particularly, the Peer PBL group was identified to be the group with significant change in knowledge level in this study. Class activities and peer interaction have highly affected students' perspective towards energy savings and environmental satisfaction. Findings from the experiment confirmed that peers were recognized to be extremely influential in raising participants' awareness and motivation towards operation of the controls, energy conservation, and environmental comfort.
