Use what you learn about solar energy to save the school dance from vampires in this super cool solar energy game. Collect energy during the day using solar panels to ward off the vampires at night. Consider sun angle, tilt, shadows and time of year to maximize your energy collection - good luck!
ABOUT THE SCIENCE
Did you know only absorbed light can be converted to electricity? What ways can you use the electricity that is converted from solar panels?
Using solar energy in your home or business has a lot of benefits: it is free, clean, and infinitely renewable. It also reduces utility costs, increases energy self-reliance, and is extremely reliable. So, how does it work?
Solar energy uses the direct conversion of light into electricity at the atomic level (photovoltaic cells) to generate electricity from solar energy and this process is called the photoelectric effect. Materials absorb photons of light and release electrons. When electrons are captured, an electric current results that can be used as electricity in our homes.
Before we get the electricity in our homes, there are a variety of factors that need to be considered with solar energy: solar altitude or height of the sun and the angle throughout the day, and keeping solar panels shadow free are just a few.
This is an online game associated with activities during Solar Week, a twice-yearly event in March and October during which classrooms are able to interact with scientists studying the Sun. Outside of Solar Week, information, activities, and resources are archived and available online at any time. This is a scavenger hunt game to acquaint learners with Solar Week female scientists and their backgrounds. This game is scheduled to occur during Friday of Solar Week.
This is a game associated with activities during Solar Week, a twice-yearly event in March and October during which classrooms are able to interact with scientists studying the Sun. Outside of Solar Week, information, activities, and resources are archived and available online at any time. During this game, learners use clues to find out the color, average size, temperature, and location of the Sun. This activity is scheduled to occur during Monday of Solar Week.
This is an online game associated with activities during Solar Week, a twice-yearly event in March and October during which classrooms are able to interact with scientists studying the Sun. Outside of Solar Week, information, activities, and resources are archived and available online at any time. Learners view images of celebrities in various stages of pixellation to try to guess who the celebrity is by viewing images that are highly pixellated down to images that are more defined. This relates to astronomical image resolution and how the number of pixels defines the resolution of an image. This activity is scheduled to occur during Tuesday of Solar Week.

An interactive game that teaches students about nutrition and how astronauts eat in space.
This site provides fun activities for children to do and make, while they learn about space and Earth science, and the technology that enables science. The Teachers Corner on the WWW site contains curriculum supplements originally published in the ITEA (International Technology Education Association) Technology Transfer Teacher magazine.
This article describes the the effects of salt and heat on water and its movements. The accompanying game requires the manipulation of those two variables to create water currents leading to a treasure chest. A second article briefly describes six relevant NASA satellite missions. The article is targeted to children ages 10-12.
In this game, players help rid Earth of excess greenhouse gases with the goal of getting atmospheric temperature to the "normal" range. A link is included which provides directions on making greenhouse gases out of gumdrops. The article/game is targeted to children ages 10-12.
This is a game about data compression. Learners will use virtual foam balls to explore the different compression methods (lossless, lossy, and superchannel) used by the Earth Observing 3 mission.
In the game, "Ozone Trap-n-Zap," players must balance ozone within designated layers of Earth's atmosphere. Background information on ozone is provided through an embedded link to an article entitled, "Life in a greenhouse? How ghastly!" Additional information on why ozone is considered good or bad in each layer is included. The article and game are targeted to children ages 10-12.
This article provides a brief introduction to the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) and its weather data gathering capabilities. In the accompanying game, players help the GOES-R satellite collect data on six weather variables. The game can be downloaded to iPhone or iPad from an iTunes link provided. The article is targeted to children ages 10-12.
A brief article on the role satellites play in studying weather introduces the topic featured in the accompanying game. The game requires players to move tiles to re-create a photo of Earth or space weather. Additional photographs show three weather features. The article and game are targeted to children ages 10-12.
This article describes the multi-camera instrument (Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer or MISR) aboard the Terra Satellite; participants use information from the article to complete a crossword puzzle.
