SOLAR CAR: ReducIng air pollution coming from transport
English
Spain
Why are solar cars of interest in the EU and throughout the world? In Cyprus, as in many other European countries, solar car races attract people’s interest. Groups of students and adults design and build their own cars to participate in these competitions. Furthermore, big car companies invest money and technology in future solar-powered cars. This task aims to provide students with opportunities to discover the significance of adapting and using solar energy in transportation whilst exploring relevant mathematical and scientific content. Students complete a number of activities in mathematics, science and technology, applying knowledge from all three disciplines. Building on existing understanding and working on interdisciplinary activities, students will design, build and operate a model solar car.

Water Quality : How can the purity of swimming water be tested?
English
Netherlands
The quality of swimming water is checked annually according to guidelines that are the same for all EU countries. What are these guidelines? How are they determined and applied? Does the water near your school meet the criteria? These are the questions that will be dealt with in this unit. Students will investigate how water quality can be determined. Biology, chemistry and mathematics all play a role in this activity. Based on the testing of water samples, students will provide some advice for the local tourist office.

DESERTEC: solar power plants in the desert.
English
Germany
Can we produce clean energy from the sun in the desert? Solar power plants are regarded as one possible solution for future energy supply problems. While dealing with this question, students will be exploring mathematical and physical principles and problems concerning solar power plants in the desert. How can electrical power be generated? Which type of mirror is suitable for solar power plants? How many power plants are necessary in order to meet Europe’s energy demand? How can this energy be brought to Europe? Discussing possible ways of implementing the project “Desertec” is the final step of the teaching unit
