At the 2nd National Energy Education Summit on June 7, Steve Hicks will present a session on project-based learning as a catalyst for energy education.
Hicks is associate director for education at the Duke University Energy Initiative and theme administrator for Bass Connections in Energy.
His session will describe how project-based learning is being used effectively as a vehicle to engage both undergraduate and graduate students in broad, interdisciplinary energy education opportunities. He’ll share examples of interdisciplinary projects using team-based structures and processes, including Bass Connections, and will discuss lessons learned.
