All of the simulations in this sampler can be found within existing NEED modules and guides, and each is referenced on the individual simulation overview page.

These energy simulations will help introduce students to a few challenging energy concepts and processes, including energy transformations in power generation, how a nuclear power plant works, the photoelectric effect in solar cells, hydrogen fuel cells, and managing electrical demand.  Each of the energy simulations we have selected require that students get up and out of their seats to act out a portion of the concept or process represented. Can’t take students to a power plant? Create one in your classroom!
