Frazier's "Design Your Own Clean Energy Town" project lets students make decisions about the energy and environmental needs of a community. Students engage in research and experiments to develop knowledge of traditional fossil fuels, alternative energy, energy safety, economics, and environmental impact. They then render a scale blueprint of a town, which includes placement of energy sources and fueling facilities. The project exposes students to new energy concepts and helps them gather information about career opportunities in areas such as engineering, land development, and economics.
