The prototype education model program links students to scientific data, research projects, and scientific expertise through the Internet. This model, developed in conjunction with the Planetary and Space Science Center Outreach Program, involves teachers and students from six Wyoming schools: Jackson, Tongue River (Ranchester/Dayton), Lusk, Laramie, Casper, and Cheyenne. UW science/mathematics education faculty and graduate students and the Research Cluster scientists are developing energy education materials which incorporate changes in instructional design facilitated by the technology and are investigating ways to access, store, and retrieve data. The team brings together the higher education community, state/regional/national energy industry, and school personnel for the purpose of enhancing research and education in energy science.

The Wyoming Coal Website offers information in an education-friendly format for students and educators to learn more about coal, and its influence upon the state of Wyoming.
