Benjamin VonEitzen

Project Name:

Fueling the Future of Renewable Energy

Mr. VonEitzen will join Lisa Grable at the FREEDM Systems Center as well other scientists and teachers as they create dynamic curriculum materials that highlight the importance of renewable energy research for students.

His studies will involve the implications to industry, society, and individuals of a grid incorporating renewable energy and how this aligns with Next Generation Science Standards, the Common Core, and state standards.

Working with the FREEDM System Center’s content experts and scientists, he will translate his newfound knowledge into engaging lesson plans integrating science and engineering practices and cross-cutting concepts for use across North Carolina.
