Energy Education Tools
As part of its commitment to education, and with the help of industry professionals and educators, the EnergySolutions Foundation has created tools for educating junior high and high school students about nuclear energy. These tools are available for FREE download below.
Alphas, Betas, Gammas, Oh My! contains activities, labs, and presentations that encourage discussions in physics, environmental science, energy, and nuclear energy. These materials serves as a supplement to the teacher’s core curriculum and includes live links to additional resources, PowerPoint presentations, photos, and game pieces.

“I have used the games and the power point information with the environmental class. The students really loved the board games and the game using the popcorn. The information was very useful for us because it is very hard to find hands-on activities for the class. Thank you for the information. If you have any new information, please share it with us.”

“The book is a must especially for science teachers around the world. It is very important so that they understand the issues connected with nuclear energy because they are the most important influencers of young people. I applaud the authors’ readable, informative, serious and yet funny treatment of the subject.”
