The Batteries learning journey provides ideas for learning and teaching about batteries in the context of electric transport, specifically focusing on the eRally car project.
This project was initiated by former British Rally Championship competitors to bring about a radical change in the perception of electric vehicles by showcasing clean technology through motorsport.
In this journey, learners build up knowledge and skills through a curriculum focus in sciences. The lesson ideas allow them to see the purpose and relevance of learning about batteries.
There are rich opportunities to work with partners in this journey by inviting someone from a local business to help learners gain insights into the world of work.
