The topic of final disposal of radioactive waste not only affects everyone in Germany at the moment, but also various disciplines. So which lessons is it suitable for? In German, you can hold pro and con debates, in geography you can evaluate the locations and in physics you can look at the physical and technical background to the use of nuclear energy. It is also an extremely political topic. Together with the \u00d6ko-Institut e.V., the Independent Institute for Environmental Issues (UfU) has produced educational material that enables pupils to look at the topic from different perspectives <strong>in three double lessons<\/strong>. Pupils take on the role of experts and take part in the site search. The teacher&#8217;s guide contains a lesson plan and appendix with record sheets, glossary and other materials for the lessons as well as maps with detailed information to print out. At the end of the teacher&#8217;s guide, links, literature, films and radio programs are recommended.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;ufu-projekt&#8221;]<strong>Runtime<\/strong><br \/>\n10\/2013- 03\/2014<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cooperation partner<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oeko.de\/forschung-beratung\/themen\/nukleartechnik-und-anlagensicherheit\/kernfrage-endlagerung\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00d6ko-Institut e.V.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Supported by<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.zukunftserbe.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3783\" title=\"Logo_Foundation-Future_Heitage_1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Logo_Stiftung-Zukunftserbe_1-600x86.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"307\" height=\"44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Logo_Stiftung-Zukunftserbe_1-600x86.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Logo_Stiftung-Zukunftserbe_1-768x111.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Logo_Stiftung-Zukunftserbe_1.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 307px) 100vw, 307px\" \/><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact us<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/ueber-uns\/team\/dr-silke-domasch\/\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/ueber-uns\/team\/dr-silke-domasch\/\">Dr. Silke Domasch<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Further information<\/strong><br \/>\nDownload the teaching material for 10th to 12th grades <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Lehrerhandreichung.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1. teacher&#8217;s guide<\/a> (43 pages) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Vortrag.pptx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2. teacher&#8217;s presentation <\/a>(ppt) 3. info cards on various topics <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Atomrecht.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nuclear law<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Beteiligung.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">participation<\/a> &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Entsorgung.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> waste disposal<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Geologie.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">geology<\/a> &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Strahlenschutz.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> radiation protection<\/a> &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufu.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/2017_Update_Endlagerstandortsuche_Infokarten-Beispiele.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> examples<\/a> Copyright notice: The documents are <a class=\"external-link-new-window external-link\" title=\"Opens external link in new window\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/4.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">licensed under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license<\/a> (permits non-commercial redistribution as long as this is done without modification and in full and the author is credited).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to its high energy efficiency, LED lighting makes a significant contribution to saving electricity and protecting the climate.
