Group Work Day-Alternative Energy

In class today, we worked in our Alternative Energy Groups.  Our goal was to create a presentation for tomorrow that included these key concepts for EACH energy type represented in the group: solar energy, geothermal energy, wind energy, hydroelectric energy and biomass energy.  For each energy type, the minimum that should be shared in your presentation for EACH energy is the following:

*What is it?
*How does it work?
*Where do you find it?
*Advantages of using it?
*Choose one type that is the BEST-state Why it's better than the rest.  Sell it!

As a group, they will be presenting their information to the class and Post Falls Energy Committee tomorrow!  Be prepared.  The rubric on how you will be scored is below as well.
