Abstract
The central objective of this project was to develop a package of energy education workshops for secondary schools. The package contains nine energy workshops. Each workshop comprises a teacher's guide and a student worksheet. The package production process included choosing an education methodology, reviewing energy themes for selection as workshop topics and evaluating the energy workshop package. This dissertation provides insight into the processes of producing this package. My participation in the Community Education Resource's Masters programme introduced he goal of producing university resources in formats which are accessible to a broader audience. Energy themes for the workshops were drawn from a review of existing resources, particularly those f the Energy for Development Research Centre, and were selected for their relevance to energy as an agent of development, energy production and environmental concerns, energy policy formulation and vocational interest.
