H2GP XPR Fuel Cell Science & Chassis Classroom SET
What can you do with the H2GP XPR Science & Chassis Classoom SET from Horizon? Whatever you can dream up. Our kit includes instructions and all necessary parts to assemble a functioning HYDROGEN CAR!
Once your students familiarize themselves with the technology, encourage them to build their own car from scratch and then use the Fuel Cell and motor to power it. Let them become engineers and designers of their own unique vehicle! How much imagination do they have? Everything you need to split water and use its hydrogen to generate electricity is included. What that electricity powers is up to you. Use our included activity guide or come up with your own ideas.
This bundle serves 12 students in distance education or 24 students in classical teaching at school.
Contains of 12x H2GP XPR Fuel Cell Science Kit & 12x H2GP XPR Chassis Kit
Educational Objectives - STEM in a creative and open-ended way
H2GP XPR Science Classrom SET (12x)
Through its broad spectrum and developed curriculum, the H2GP XPR will easily fit in Chemistry, Physics, as well as Art or Ecology classes. Beyond the knowledge, students’ competencies will be effectively taught and developed through effective SEL principles. Finally, students are taught about renewable energy, why is it important and how to use recycled materials, so they can fully understand the importance of sustainability and the 3Rs: reduce-reuse-recycle
XPR Chasis Classroom Pack (12x)
The Chassis Kit is a great tool for students to build the very first hydrogen car prototype in their lives. The video guides make building the wooden chassis simple and fun. In addition, practice runs with the basic wooden chassis are a great entry point for improvement. Can students improve the chassis to ensure better performance of their prototype? Great, go for it! They already know the basic principles thanks to the wooden chassis kit.
H2GP EXPLORER (XPR)
Students are tasked with designing and fabricating a car that is powered by H2. First, they will sketch out their ideas on paper in order to help them come up with a plan of how they want to design their vehicle.
Next, they will need to source materials that are strong enough to hold the components of the fuelcell system, but light enough to allow the car to travel as far as possible.
Finally, they will build their prototype and test it in a race against others to see which designis able to travel the furthest.
