Students compare school-friendly options such as solar charging, improved insulation, motion-sensor lighting, daylighting features, or energy-saving reminders using picture cards, short fact sheets, and a trade-off chart. They discuss materials, cost, installation time, pollution impact, and usefulness for students and staff. Teams use the chart to narrow to one main solution and one backup idea.
