Instructor
Learn how modern aircraft are being redesigned to reduce pollution and climate impact. From electric engines to futuristic wing shapes and sustainable fuels, you’ll explore how aviation is becoming smarter, cleaner, and greener. No science background needed—just a love for flying and a passion for the planet!
You'll engage in hands-on projects and collaborate with peers to tackle real-world challenges in the aviation industry. By the end of the course, you'll not only understand the technology behind green aviation but also how you can contribute to a more sustainable future in air travel.
This course includes 3 modules, 6 lessons, and 2:00 hours of materials.
In this course, you’ll learn how traditional airplanes impact our planet and how engineers are designing new, eco-friendly aircraft to solve the problem. You’ll explore how reducing weight, reshaping wings, and using smart computers can cut down on fuel use.
Before you begin the quiz, please write your full name before start the quiz. This helps us know who you are and keep track of your progress.
Green Skies Project — Your Vision for Sustainable Flight
Imagine you are part of a global team of young innovators designing a new eco-friendly aircraft. In this project, you will apply what you’ve learned about green aviation — such as clean fuels, lightweight materials, aerodynamic design, and future technologies — to create your own green aircraft concept that helps reduce the impact of air travel on our planet.
📌 Assignment Instructions:
You will submit a Green Aircraft Design Proposal that includes the following parts:
1. ✈️ Your Aircraft Concept
Give your aircraft a creative name, and write a short description (50–100 words) of what it is, who it’s for (passenger, cargo, emergency, etc.), and where it will fly (short or long range).
2. 🖊️ Green Design Report (300–400 words)
Answer the following in paragraph or bullet form:
- What green technology or feature does your aircraft use? (e.g. electric engines, hydrogen fuel, solar panels, blended wings, recycled materials, etc.)
- How does it help reduce pollution or fuel use?
- What materials are used in your aircraft to make it lightweight and sustainable?
- How is it different from regular aircraft today?
3. 📐 Aircraft Sketch or Digital Drawing
- Create a simple hand-drawn or digital design of your aircraft showing its unique eco-friendly features. Label the parts and highlight green technologies (like wing shape, engines, solar panels, etc.).
4. 🌍 Environmental Impact Summary (100–150 words)
Explain how your aircraft design will make a positive difference for the planet. Consider:
- Emission reduction
- Fuel/energy savings
- Noise pollution
- Recyclability
