El programa, creado en colaboraci\u00f3n con <a href=\"http:\/\/us.sunpower.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">SunPower<\/a>, combina el aprendizaje en clase con la aplicaci\u00f3n en el mundo real de la tecnolog\u00eda solar. Equipos de estudiantes de secundaria de tres distritos escolares del \u00e1rea del Valle Interior aplicar\u00e1n las habilidades que aprendieron en clase cuando instalan paneles solares en cuatro viviendas de Habitat for Humanity en Moreno Valley el 2 de noviembre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNuestros estudiantes est\u00e1n realmente deseando la instalaci\u00f3n\u201d, dijo Arroy Valley High School <a href=\"http:\/\/avhscoreacademy.weebly.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">CORE Academy<\/a> La asesora Laura Gallardo. \u201cPasan tiempo en el aula estudiando sistemas fotovoltaicos, y GRID les brinda la oportunidad de poner su conocimiento en acci\u00f3n.\u201d Gallardo ha participado en CORE (Cultivating Organic Recycling Environmentalists) desde su creaci\u00f3n en 2009. \u201cInicialmente tuvimos algunos desaf\u00edos para reclutar profesores y socios empresariales. Pero a medida que CORE ha crecido, estoy satisfecho con nuestra interacci\u00f3n con los socios. GRID Inland Empire contribuye regularmente con recursos tanto para estudiantes m\u00e1s j\u00f3venes como para estudiantes de primer a\u00f1o y de \u00faltimo a\u00f1o.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>John Mesicek, asesor de la Escuela Secundaria de Desert Hot Springs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dhsreal\" target=\"_blank\">Real Academy<\/a> (Academia de Aprendizaje de Energ\u00eda Renovable), expres\u00f3 elogios similares. \u201cNuestros estudiantes est\u00e1n emocionados de trabajar con GRID. La instalaci\u00f3n les brinda una experiencia cercana y directa. Aprenden el proceso de c\u00f3mo se conecta electr\u00f3nicamente un sistema solar\u201d, dijo. \u201cLos estudiantes est\u00e1n particularmente interesados en la etapa final, ya que el sistema se conecta y el medidor gira hacia atr\u00e1s\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Los estudiantes de la Escuela Secundaria Norte Vista tambi\u00e9n participan a trav\u00e9s de sus <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alvord.k12.ca.us\/nortevista\/academies\/index.aspx?a=14\" target=\"_blank\">Green Construction Academy<\/a> (GCA). Su programa se enfoca en la preparaci\u00f3n para la universidad y la inserci\u00f3n laboral. El objetivo de GCA es desarrollar habilidades b\u00e1sicas para los estudiantes que ingresan a la emergente econom\u00eda verde a trav\u00e9s de la colaboraci\u00f3n con l\u00edderes del sector como GRID y SunPower. Los estudiantes reconocen que el entorno \u00fanico de California ofrece condiciones favorables para la energ\u00eda solar y sus numerosas oportunidades laborales: solo en 2014, la industria solar a\u00f1adi\u00f3 m\u00e1s de 31,000 empleos a la econom\u00eda estadounidense, un crecimiento de m\u00e1s del 20 por ciento respecto a 2013.<\/p>\n<p>SunPower, l\u00edder mundial en energ\u00eda solar, se asoci\u00f3 con GRID Alternatives para crear Solar Futures como una forma de mejorar el aprendizaje en las aulas sobre la energ\u00eda solar, por ejemplo a trav\u00e9s de la Solar Science Academy de SunPower, con la formaci\u00f3n pr\u00e1ctica en instalaci\u00f3n solar que ofrece GRID. SunPower ha donado 1 megavatio de paneles solares de alta eficiencia e inversores a GRID como parte de esta iniciativa \u2014 suficiente para abastecer aproximadamente 300 hogares. \u201cEl cambio real comienza con nuestros j\u00f3venes, por eso SunPower invierte en iniciativas de educaci\u00f3n solar y STEM (ciencias, tecnolog\u00eda, ingenier\u00eda y matem\u00e1ticas)\u201d, dijo Tom Werner, CEO de SunPower. \u201cAyudamos a los estudiantes a experimentar la tecnolog\u00eda de primera mano y a aprender sobre las diversas carreras disponibles para ellos en el creciente sector de la energ\u00eda renovable. Estamos deseosos de trabajar con GRID en el programa Solar Futures, aprovechando nuestra experiencia conjunta para llevar la energ\u00eda solar a los hogares desde los tejados hasta las aulas\u201d.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How does GRID IE kick-start the school year?
