Hi gep-ed folks: I teach the capstone course for Wellesley's ES major; each year we take on a campus project and the syllabus for that course is designed around that project.
This spring (soon!) we'll be looking at electricity and thermal (heating and cooling) energy generation and use on campus, considering the fate of our aging co-gen power plant and the future of energy generation and use on campus. The topic may sound very local, but clearly energy decisions have international ramifications (especially environmentally), and I'm hoping folks int his community might be able to point me towards good sources of information. I'm pretty much starting from scratch in putting together a syllabus. Does anyone have related syllabi to pass on, suggested readings (we want some basic background on approaches to, and implications of, different energy options, as well as anything about use/conservation strategies or anything else you'd think relevant)? Any and all suggestions welcomed, especially if they arrive soon. Please reply to me; I can report back to the list on what suggestions I received. Thanks! Beth Elizabeth R.
