About KidWind
The KidWind Project is a team of teachers, students, engineers, and prac-
titioners exploring the science behind wind energy in classrooms around
the US. Our goal is to introduce as many people as possible to the
elegance of renewable energy through hands-on science activities which
are challenging, engaging, and teach basic science principles.
While improving science education is our main goal, we also aim to help
schools become important resources for both students and the general
public, to learn about and see renewable energy in action.
Thanks to …
We would like to thank the Wright Center for Science Education at Tufts
University for giving us the time and space to develop this idea into a use-
ful project for thousands of teachers.
We would also like to thank Trudy Forsyth at the National Wind Technol-
ogy Center and Richard Michaud at the Boston Office of the Department
of Energy for having the vision and foresight to help establish the Kid-
Wind Project in 2004. Lastly, we would like to thank all the teachers for
their keen insight and feedback on making our kits and materials first rate!
Wind for All
At KidWind, we strongly believe that K–12 education is an important
foundation for promoting a more robust understanding of the opportuni-
ties and challenges that emerging clean energy technologies present.
The Wind for All program seeks to support teachers and students all over
the globe who do not have the financial capacity to access our training
programs and equipment. We believe that all teachers and students—re-
gardless of where they live or what school they attend—must be part of
the clean energy future.
