The Social System
Describe the interpersonal structure of the instructional experience.

This unit will be taught at the end of a FOSS kit on Solar energy and that unit will provide a great deal of the background information they will need. Students will work in collaborative groups to research, create a presentation, and present findings to class. Each group will be responsible for fully understanding at least two forms of energy and how they can be compared and contrasted. While students will study and work together to learn, they will be required to complete a comparison individually.
