Climate Agents

The Climate Agents project has developed a game-based educational format on the topic of energy saving. The picture story ‘Eddie the curious electron’ forms the basis of the teaching unit for primary school pupils in years 3 and 4. The picture story and accompanying learning materials focus on energy consumption in households. The pupils take on the role of energy detectives in the picture story, which leads them to various energy consumers in their private lives. The students analyse energy consumption in households, involving their families in the process. The material provides comprehensive, everyday tips in child-friendly language on how to reduce energy consumption.

The pilot phase of the project was carried out in cooperation with the Sternschanze primary school in Hamburg.
