Connect with National Laboratory Experts to Energize Your End-of-Year and Summer Bioenergy Learning

Register today for upcoming Bioenergy Research and Education Bridge (BRIDGES) Program office hours to help educators extend bioenergy learning through the summer. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO), in collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory and Idaho National Laboratory, has developed an easy-to-implement, ready-to-use bioenergy case study-based education curriculum.

Discover enrichment activities for the classroom, incorporate digital resources into your summer teaching toolbox, and enhance your professional development using the BRIDGES Program. BRIDGES case study toolkits include guides for high school, technical and community college, and university students and instructors, with a focus on research and development scenarios. Topics cover sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), upcycling plastics, bioenergy feedstocks, and waste-to-energy potential. In addition, the BRIDGES overview and student testimonial video is also available as an effective introduction to the program.

One-on-one assistance from national laboratory experts will be available to learn how to incorporate the BRIDGES case studies into your clean energy classroom curriculum. Office hours will be held from 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. ET, and requires registration. Mark your calendars for the following dates:

• April 18, 2024
• May 2, 2024
