Alternative Energy

Semester Credit .5 Grades 9-12 Est. Fee $20
This course is designed for students who are interested in pursuing a career 
in engineering. One major objective of this course is for students to learn 
about and explore innovative ways to power our society. As our world 
changes, the need for individuals who are trained in this growing field are 
in high demand. “Green” concepts, energy trends, and potential ways to 
cut energy costs will be discussed. Particular areas of interest will include 
solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy. Basic electrical concepts will 
be introduced with lab activities. Students will also learn about fossil fuels, 
nuclear energy, bio-fuels, fuel cells, and biomass-energy. Students completing 
two credits or 1 full credit in this pathway will fulfill the Fine Arts requirement for graduation.
