Electricity Through Hydropower Model

School	Satya Special School, Tamil Nadu
Group	ID Group
Student team	Students of OBE Level II and NIOS
Project Description	The students built a model to demonstrate how water can be used to generate electricity.
Project Goals	Through this project, the students aimed to: Demonstrate the use of hydropower to generate electricity Use of hydropower will be a low-cost alternative to generate electricity
Highlights	The working model of using hydro power to generate electricity to light an LED was demonstrated clearly by the students. The students took turns explaining what was happening. Further, one of the students shared the real-life application of the same by the water from the Kaveri River through a dam to generate electricity.
Success factors shared by the Mentor Teacher	Identifying a project that helps the students better understand a concept keeps them engaged. Creating a scientific model empowered them and made them feel like ‘inventors.’ The entire process boosted the students’ confidence levels and improved their communication skills.
