abstract = {After detecting a real problem of energy deficiency in the community where the school is located, it has been decided to carry out an educational project that involves various educational levels and various agents of the environment, all in search of a common solution. The project presented in this paper is an example of good practice in relation to design thinking, real problem solving and meaningful learning.
The aim of the project is to introduce the basic knowledge of home electricity to our students. In order to end energy poverty, as much as possible, it is important to instil this useful information and to create awareness. This is done by using innovative methodologies, cooperative work, peer learning in different educational levels such as professional training and compulsory education.
The project is a collaboration of the variety of our students' knowledge and it is a great way for them to help each other. It tries to show the way the professional training students share their knowledge to their peers from different levels, by real learning, motivation and the application of everyday skills.
We are trying to break away from the stigma that the professional training students have lower qualification and a lack of skills. These students have to feel prepared and confident as they start to work in the real world.
This initiative does not intend to solve the problem completely, but now we are providing the tools to fight against energy poverty. We are doing this by networking, contacting public administration and local governments, companies and different schools.
The paper presents the objectives of the project, the actions that have been carried out in the different educational levels, the evaluation of the students, the results of the intervention, as well as the collaborations with the external agents that have participated, such as companies, families or associations.},
