Engage your students in a discussion on how your country manages its domestic energy and supports global energy needs! With energy policy always in the news, it’s a perfect opportunity to host a classroom debate on national energy policies. Students can explore various approaches to energy management and their potential impact on both their country and the global environment and economy. This debate will encourage critical thinking and connect classroom learning with real-world issues.
This resource packet includes engaging Switch Classroom materials to boost student knowledge of national and global energy topics. The featured Energy Switch TV episode, New Geopolitics of Energy, explores how energy sources might evolve in the 21st century. To help students prepare for their debate, foundational lessons like Introduction to Energy and The Energy Mix build essential understanding. The Switch Classroom Lessons Library also offers deeper dives into each energy source from coal to nuclear, equipping students with what they need to excel in their debate research!
We’re excited for teachers to use this resource and encourage informed discussion and meaningful dialogue on current energy issues.
