I think that for some complex concepts such as the photons and electrons, in addition to the verbal explanation, we can look for a short simplifiedYouTube video to help in improving the learners' understanding because most people tend to be visual learners.

It would be a good step if the student built the suitcases for deployment. It will be a proud moment for them to know that the work of their hands is being utilised somewhere as opposed to what the STEM students have been doing.

The photovoltaic effect may be a challenge, especially for those without a science background when we introduce the "electrical" Physics words.

I think they will enjoy the hands on and social drama the most

# data[].attributes.body
Social drama being before building the suitcase may be an interesting approach which can pique the students curiosity and anticipation towards buiding the suitcase. May be if time allows repeat the drama at the end.

# data[].attributes.body
It is a whole different approach, which is very meticulously and simple at the same time.

# data[].attributes.body
The learners can also be encouraged to share what they learnt with other students. This will spur an interest in the others and keep the knowledge flow going.

How does one ensure they continuously advance/ better themselves in being a good STEM facilitator?

# data[].attributes.body
I think teachers esp. those with technical background will enjoy building the suitcases, doing the assembly work themselves.

I also believe the teachers will be curious to know how other teaching strategies or teaching methodologies are implemented.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel confident facilitating the practical sessions since I have participated in a hands-on solar suitcase practical session and I have also participated in WSS solar suitcase installation. In my opinion hands-on practical is a useful session for STEM facilitators.

Use of different teaching strategies helps to make the class interesting/fun and caters for different participants hence this will increase the students or teachers grasps of the concepts.

Theory sessions: Mostly for teachers who have little/no background in solar energy

# data[].attributes.body
The sequence looks okay. The social drama will be more exciting to the students after they have built the suitcase as they will have understand the components and there purposes. Moving it there was a good idea.

# data[].attributes.body
The teaching strategies adopted are great. More time has been allocated to building the suitcase, which gives the learners some practical skills.

I have been a critic of the tracing the electricity from the very first training. It is taught that, for example, the electricity flows from the battery positive to switch positive to the charge controller positive and then back to the charge controller negative to switch negative and battery negative.

1. That is NOT how electricity flows. If electricity flows like that in a system, then it is a short circuit. Electricity is converted from chemical energy to electric energy and flows from battery positive to switch positive to charge controller positive and then to load positive, till it is converted to light energy and heat energy in the bulb

2. What we have been teaching the students all this time is a short circuit, made even more confusing because after the tracing the electricity exercise, we have a quality control exercise where we teach students how to test so we can ensure that the electricity does not flow back to the battery. This must have been very confusing to the students who fully understood the exercise.

3. I do not understand why, despite the fact that I initially brought this to the awareness of the trainer of trainers, back in 2020, Remote Energy still insists on calling it tracing the electricity when there is a simple fix. Just call it tracing the battery circuit or understanding the battery circuit. The intention behind the exercise is to understand the circuitry diagram, so call it a circuit, not flow the electricity. Flow of electricity is something very different and if you want us to do it, we can do it, but the way you are having us do it is not only wrong, but immediately followed by the quality control exercises is confusing to the students.

I think the teachers will enjoy the practicals more. This is engaging and the outputs are visible.

Most confident: Demonstrating suitcase building and use of the tools.

Least Confident: Teacher training.

Using words photons and electrons may not be optimal, depending on literacy levels. Perhaps an analogy can be used here, like comparing the flow of energy to water and how energy changes state from one form to another, to how water can change color. Example, how light energy transforms to electric energy can compare to how yellow colored water can transform to red colored water.
