Using the teaching unit "Investigations on PV cells" , students experience the interplay between theory, experiment and technical application using the school's own PV system or the Solar Education PV experiment set or the PV teaching equipment system.
 

 
 A comprehensive teaching unit covering the fundamental topics of photovoltaics: from the physical operating principle and components of a real PV system, to various experiments and the role of...
 
 Energy transition in photovoltaics. If available, there will also be a "digital field trip" to the school roof, where students can experience the school's own PV system live (i.e., the PV livestream lesson is part of this lesson).
 

 
 This fosters the development of process-related skills in the areas of knowledge acquisition, communication, and evaluation. The focus is on the Solar Education experiment kit and the PV livestream lesson. Students learn fundamental knowledge through theoretical units, validate this knowledge through self-conducted experiments, and establish valuable practical connections through interaction with a technician.
 

 
 The PV experiment kit or the PV teaching system from Solar Bildung is required for this. Alternatively, the school's own PV system can be used instead of the PV teaching system, if available.
