  • Abstract
    To meet the demands for education, engineering curricula intend go beyond teaching technical knowledge. In addition to classic modules, our department considers sustainability subjects such as energy awareness. This paper describes the implementation of a teaching plan for energy-efficient design in hands-on labs and visualizes the possibilities to bring the methods of reducing power consumption closer to students and observe the size of the effects.
