Watt's Your Consumption: Sample Lesson Plan
In this exercise, students learn to improve their own energy efficiency by measuring the kilowatt consumption of appliances common to the classroom and home. "Kill-a-watt" meters are available on loan from NorthWoods so that students can learn first hand how they can stamp out their own contribution to the energy crisis.
