EnWatch for STEM studies

Energy Monitoring
Enwatch is a multi-disciplinary classroom tool.

In terms of STEM, it enables students to use actual energy monitoring equipment to access real time data and view their school’s energy use, pinpoint problems and test possible solutions. The energy monitoring system allows students to view graphs covering current and historical data. Using this data analysis students will have a cohesive understanding of things that affect energy consumption like air conditioning settings and behavioural patterns.

Lab Test Kit
The Lab Test kit enables students to discover where power is used at a very personal level.

Simply plug in appliances that they might use on a daily basis – microwave, popcorn maker, sandwich grill, coffee machine, etc. Students will immediately be able to see electrical current as it is being used. There are also assessment sheets plus information covering what is electricity, electricity production and transmission, and other useful support information for teachers.

Q & A – supported student and industry events
The EnWatch Q & A supports class studies in sustainability, electricity and energy use.

The program incorporates interaction with industry supplied professionals as the Q & A Panelists and offers multiple learning opportunities for students through active participation, collaboration and team work.
The kit supports students, along with a supplied industry Panel, to present and debate a specific sustainability topic. Following the debate, a short networking event can be held to offer students the opportunity to expand their work and life ready skills. They can meet and network with Panellists and industry personnel Networking and research techniques are included in the kit. The kit also provides details on hosting and creating such an event. Students will gain insight into hosting professional events which is invaluable to the modern workplace.
The Production Team will video and edit the Q & A which can be submitted to EnWatch as part of a National competition.
The primary focus is to encourage students to begin thinking, questioning and engage in constructive debating. Other opportunities include consideration for future career paths, networking for work experience and practice in professional socializing and industry connections.

Visual Screens
The EnWatch Visual Screens enable visibility of your business/school community’s energy achievements.

EnWatch Visual Screens promote sustainability and energy awareness in an effort to reduce waste.
The visual screens display a range of information covering energy use within the business/school, along with current energy use, date, and current temperature.

Awards
EnWatch awards acknowledge a School/Business’s accumulated reductions.

Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum awards are based on annual assessment of energy reduction achievements. Reduction calculations are verified through the energy monitoring system and actual energy bills.
EnWatch award medallions can be displayed via the EnWatch Visual Display screens and can also be incorporated into official documentation, website, financial reports, brochures and promotional documentation.
