On Thursday, 11 January 2024, we started off this unit with a provocation about Bill Nye The Science Guy, and his entertaining explanation of energy. The students really loved his playful and engaging video on the various types of energy, how we can harness energy for different purposes, and how we can transfer energy forms to different energy forms in order to address our energy needs. They then did a reflection on it and engaged in a riveting class discussion.
Pada hari Kamis, 18 Januari 2024, kami melakukan wisata belajar ke Museum Listrik dan Energi Baru, Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, Jakarta. Kami mendengarkan Bapak Miko dan Bapak Dede selaku pemandu wisata kami. Beliau menjelaskan dan memperlihatkan kami banyak hal diantara adalah:

On Tuesday, the 23rd of January, Ibu Imma Nuella, Ibu Yunis, and Ibu Rika Gresia, Wahyudi, came to visit Year 3 as guest speakers in order to impart their knowledge about the various forms of energy, how this energy can be harnessed for different purposes, and the importance of using energy in an effective manner. They also talked about how energy is transferred to different forms and how machines work to utilize these energy sources. These ladies had so much knowledge about energy due to their experience working at Pertamina. Pertamina is an oil and gas company, but it also deals with renewable energy such as biomass, solar, geothermal, etc. They were able to discuss their first-hand experience in working with renewable energy sources and we talked about the advantages and disadvantages of using each energy form. The students had a lovely questions and answer period in which they asked thoughtful and relevant questions about various energy forms. It was a special day and year 3 is eternally grateful. Thank you so much!
