Wyoming Energy Puzzle

Keeping the big question in mind ...

What role does Wyoming play in contributing to the nation’s energy needs?


Task #4: Find the energy resource your team has been assigned in the table below. Divide the web links among teammates, excepting the presentation designer, under the direction of the team leader. While teammates explore and record information from assigned websites, the presentation designer begins preparing materials and plans for the presentation. The designer should return to preview the requirements outlined on the Processing page again to keep the team on track for gathering the necessary information. Each teammate should submit information as available in the agreed on team format to the presentation designer as it is available. During research, ongoing communication with the designer will mean work on the presentation can continue in a timely and efficient manner.

The following pages are jumping off points at these sites. You may find additional links within the site that will help your investigation.
