Piloted in 2009 on Maui, the workshops were geared toward science standards for grades 5\u201312 and focused on integrating science with technology and engineering. Typical of the TSI program, the workshops combined instruction in inquiry as a teaching strategy with science content. And in keeping with CRDG\u2019s collaborative approach, each workshop brought in experts from the island where it was taught.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-3135\" title=\"energy2\" src=\"http:\/\/manoa.hawaii.edu\/crdg\/wp-content\/uploads\/energy2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" \/> Each workshop focused on three areas: solar energy, energy efficiency, and wind. For each topic, teachers went through an inquiry lesson and then heard from a community resource. Teachers went home with everything they needed to teach the inquiry lesson in their classrooms and with new contacts in their communities.
