**Part 1**: Research an energy type in your group.

 * ==== Individually write an article summary on an energy type, using the “science literacy” worksheet. ====
 * ==== Post your article on the wiki under your energy type (above). ====
 * ==== Meet with your group and design a presentation. ====

==== **Part 2**: You will be put in a new group, with one person representing each power type. You will decide on three energy sources to power Vietnam. Then you will decide how much of each type you want to use, calculate the total cost of your plan, and finally, summarize it on a poster. ====

You may use articles you find in the library’s Gale search, any books in the library and the following:
