Teaching Method

Outline:
Automobile engines and airplane jet engines are devices that convert thermal energy obtained by burning fuel into mechanical energy (work). On the other hand, refrigerators, air-conditioners are devices that convert electric energy into thermal energy. Thermodynamics is the study that summarizes the conversion method and the operation principle of these energy.
First, the difference between thermal energy and temperature can be understood. Next, the first law of thermodynamics, which shows that thermal energy and any other energy can be converted to each other, can be unaderstood. Finally, the second law of thermodynamics, which shows the direction and transformation limit of phenomena in nature can be understood. The exercises using these laws are conducted to improve understanding.
Style:
Although thermal energy can not be seen directly, various machines is activated by thermal energy. In the lesson, the explanation of thermal energy is made familiar using thermal phenomena. Lesson plans may be changed according to student's degree of understanding.
Notice:
Because there are many abstract expressions and handling, please learn while imagining the phenomena.
