Megawatt game - supporting documents

This set of resources support the physical game Megawatt - Discover Energy. This straightforward card game introduces pupils to the different ways electricity can be generated, the power each method generates and its environmental impact. It is suitable for pupils aged 11 plus, but an educator would have to help younger users to interpret the rules. It could be used as a tool to introduce or revise renewable and non-renewable energy sources. More detail about the game can be found here.

The resources include teacher guidance on how the game can be used in a classroom or STEM Club setting and a presentation which can be used to explain the game instructions to the pupils.
