Efigy Schools is an initiative conceptualised and promoted by the Naturgy Foundation that offers educational resources to secondary school and vocational training teachers to promote learning about a new energy model, preserving the environment and responsible energy consumption.
It is a virtual training platform developed in collaboration with teachers specialised in STEM disciplines, which aims to become a free repository of educational resources aimed at secondary school and vocational training students in the field of energy transition, sustainability and responsible energy consumption.
Efigy Schools is a gamified educational tool that enables secondary schools to become agents of change to drive a just and sustainable energy transition for all.
Methodology
The platform has a gamified approach and using educational resources contributes to the school’s score. The score also allows the school to receive recognition for its commitment to the energy transition.
Efigy Schools has a space for sharing news, developments and experiences, facilitating interaction and the exchange of ideas between different teachers, with the aim of fostering a true learning community.
