the production and development of a renewable energy resource. Key Renewable Non-renewable HEP Solar energy Wind energy Plenary Question pose – Students answer the following question: Explain one advantage and one disadvantage of a renewable energy resource. 1 lesson (1 hour) Key idea 6.4: To meet demand, countries use energy resources in different proportions. This is called the energy mix. Suggested learning objectives: To know the composition of the UK’s energy mix. To understand the factors that cause global variations in energy. 6.4a The composition of the UK’s energy mix. 6.4b How global variations in the energy mix are dependent on a number of factors: population, wealth and the availability of energy resources. Key words: Energy mix Choropleth mapping Use and interpretation of world maps showing the distribution of energy resources. Starter Question pose (peer review) – Using the answers produced from the previous lesson, students assess their peers work using the following success criteria: One advantage and one disadvantage is discussed A is made and clearly explained The points are accurate Main activity Teacher discusses the UK’s energy mix through displaying a pie-chart with the breakdown. Using the pie chart, students answer the following questions: Describe the distribution of the UK’s energy mix. Suggest one reason why the UK still relies heavily on non-renewable energy sources. Teacher reviews answers through a whole-class discussion. Then share the global distribution of energy consumption. A useful choropleth map to represent this can be sourced from the Collins Student World Atlas.
