Teaching solar energy: four student workshops
About 100 students have taken part in 4 hands-on Flash Forward workshops on solar energy and the study light.
The workshops
Flash Forward volunteers run hands-on STEM workshops that teach students how solar charging works and how the study light is assembled. About 100 students have taken part across 4 workshops.
Students see the same parts the team ships: the solar panel, the battery, the charge board, the LEDs and the 3D-printed case.
Bring a workshop to your school
Schools and student groups can ask the team about running a workshop. Write through the contact form or email about@flashforwardfoundation.org.
