The IUSES Educational Toolkit General objectives Achieve a change of behaviour in energy use Demonstrate that everyone can use energy more effectively even by getting the “low hanging fruit”.

The IUSES Educational Toolkit General objectives Give information to students and teachers about Intelligent Use of Energy Reach students of different types of schools (Humanities, Technical, etc.) Reach students in different ways (Media, experiments, etc.) Assist teaching by providing sufficient teaching material

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Parts of the IUSES Educational Kit The IUSES Toolkit tries to meet the needs of students as well as teachers by providing 6 different educational tools: Buildings Handbook Transport Handbook Industry Handbook Teachers Handbook Experimental Toolkit Multimedia DVD European Energy Saving Award (EESA)

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Handbooks The IUSES Educational Kit provides 4 Handbooks with the following content: Building Energy Efficiency Sustainable Transport & Mobility Energy Efficiency in Industry Teachers Handbook

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Handbooks Written information Information on exercises, experiments and activities Notes (tips, important information, etc.) Case studies References (origin of information) Key points (summary) Questions etc.

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Experimental Toolkit Designed to meet the needs of tactile learning types Should be used for a better comprehension of the different examples given in the Handbooks Should help students to find out for themselves the effects of different energy saving measures

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Multimedia DVD Spaces –Personalised (energy spaces, games, etc) Rules –Technical and scientific details, etc. Behaviours –Videos, multimedia graphics, multiple choice tests etc.

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Ways of Learning Listening Reading Watching Doing

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Different approaches Basic (8 hours) Advanced (20 hours) Humanities Get Basic Information by mainly using the text part of the Handbooks, smaller experiments and the Multimedia DVD Get Advanced information by using the Level ll Parts of the Handbooks, different reference on further information, advanced experiments and the Multimedia DVD Business Technical

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Humanities – Basic Use of Level I information Reading, Translation or retelling of different passages (language classes) Use exercises and questions in the Handbook to repeat the content Carry out simple calculations based on the examples in the Handbooks (maths) Smaller experiments for science classes Use of the “Spaces” part from the DVD

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Humanities – Advanced (1) Basic information + Use Level II information in the Handbooks Possibility to let Students work through different parts of the Handbook for themselves and report them to the class (exercises, questions) Discussing different questions in the Handbooks in a group work (language or science class)

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Humanities – Advanced (2) Basic information + Use of Web links to get further information Use of advanced experiments for science classes Use of the “Behaviours” and “Rules” part from the DVD

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Business approach – Basic Use of Level I information Reading, Translation or retelling of different passages (language classes) Discussion of different energy efficiency measures presented in the Handbooks on an economic basis (saving potential, etc.) Carry out simple cost calculations based on the examples in the Handbooks Use exercises and questions to repeat Use of the “Spaces” part of the DVD

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Business approach – Advanced Basic information + Use Level II information in the Handbooks Use of the advanced experiments in the experimental toolkit Work through the management parts of the Handbooks and implement Management tools at your school Use of Web links to get further information Use of the “Behaviours” and “Rules” part of the DVD

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Technical approach – Basic Use Level I information Translation of the more technical parts of the Handbooks to get used to technical terms (language classes) Carry out calculations based on the examples in the Handbooks Carry out simple experiments Use of the “Spaces” part from the DVD

The IUSES Educational Toolkit Technical approach – Advanced Basic information + Use Level II information in the Handbooks Technical parts of the Handbooks Use of Web links to get further information Use of advanced experiments (e.g. paper making, etc.) Use of the “Behaviours” and “Rules” part of the DVD
