2019 Ohio Sea Grant Kiosk PanelOHSU-SLC-1824Lake Erie is the warmest, shallowest and most productive of all of the Great Lakes, producing more fish for human consumption than the rest of the Great Lakes combined. As one of Ohio’s most valuable natural resources, the lake needs to be protected. Our economy, environment and quality of life depend on it. Ohio Sea Grant, based at The Ohio State University, uses research, education and outreach to preserve Lake Erie and other natural resources for generations to come. Ohio Sea Grant is part of NOAA Sea Grant, a national network of 34 Sea Grant programs dedicated to the protection and sustainable use of marine and Great Lakes resources.

Solar Technology Curriculum: IntroductionOHSU-EP-1517Sunlight is a renewable source of energy for Earth. The demand for cleaner energy sources and the development of strategies to harness the sun’s energy has led to an explosion of technology worldwide. Now, you can become part of the clean energy boom with this solar technology curriculum, feating four in-depth and hands-on lessons for educators to use in their classrooms to teach solar technology to a new generation. LENGTH: 1 page Download (117.49 KB) Full Detail Page |
Understanding the Mechanics of Solar TechnologyOHSU-EP-1513Solar technology seems very complex, but it can actually be rather simple. This interactive lesson is designed to help students learn the mechanics of energy transformation through the use of a small solar-powered toy. LENGTH: 2 pages Download (180.04 KB) Full Detail Page |
Using Models to Investigate Solar Thermal TechnologyOHSU-EP-1518The sun provides energy to earth via light and heat. Humans can harness that unlimited clean energy to power our world through a number of methods. In this lesson and activity, students will construct their own solar thermal tubes to determine what materials most efficiently transfer solar energy. LENGTH: 15 pages Download (2.84 MB) Full Detail Page |
Building a Solar Photovoltaic Array by Exploring Series and Parallel CircuitsOHSU-EP-1519Solar panels are typically placed deliberately to maximize energy output, but how exactly does the layout of an array, or, more accurately, the circuit, affect the energy output of solar cells? In this activity, Students will experiment with different cicuit types and layouts to determine the optimal design for greatest energy production. LENGTH: 17 pages Download (2.28 MB) Full Detail Page |
Using Real-Time Data to Relate Solar Energy Production to the Sun’s LocationOHSU-EP-1520The sun is an infinite source of clean energy, but it can be difficult to capture all of its energy because it moves across the sky, meaning that a position that may optimize energy production in the morning may not be very efficient in the evening. As such, solar arrays are designed to maximize output throughout the day and year. In this activity, students will use real-time data to learn how solar panel placement affects its energy production and use that knowledge to design their own arrays for a given location and season.
