STEM 520 Inquiry in the Physical Sciences: Energy and the Environment

There is an intricate and dynamic relationship between energy and the environment in physical sciences. K-12 educators to develop their conceptual knowledge and understanding of energy, such as electricity and power generation through inquiry, and its impacts of energy usage on natural and human-built systems. K-12 educators also develop an interdisciplinary STEM standards-based curriculum, instruction, and assessments that emphasize the physical sciences to equip their students with the knowledge and skills needed to understand the fundamental principles that govern energy dynamics and its impact on our environment.
