Learners can approach the topic of energy supply from different angles:
- Type of Clean Energy that is used by mobile devices, tools
- Wind Energy
- Solar Energy
- Wave Energy
- Kinetic Energy (e.g. of Water in dams)
- Type of Object that requires the energy for operation
- Information and Communication Technology (e.g. Mobile Devices, Deskop Computers, ...)
- Electric Mobility
- Buildings
Learning Tasks[edit | edit source]
- (Piezoelectricity) Explore the concept of Piezoelectricity[1].
- explain how this concept can be used to charge mobile devices (e.g. by harvesting the energy, when we are walking or moving arms/legs),
- explain, where would you attach the piezoelectric charger to your body (e.g. arm, legs, in shows, ...).
- define, what is necessary for a convenient use (e.g. attach the charger to jacket, to shoes.
- (Wearable Abulatory Devices) Wearable medical devices are used for ambulatory monitoring e.g. of heart beat/ECG, blood pressure, ....
- Explain the medical benefits and challenges and limitations for patients and staff members of a health care facility if they apply permanent monitoring of health parameters with mobile devices (e.g. rural and remote areas in developing countries)!
- What are the benefits, challenges and limitations of textile and flexible technologies for ambulatory monitoring[2]
