   Resources:

   • LEED Presentation; Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet
   • Week 5 Signature Assignment Green LEED Architecture

   Read the LEED Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation to gain an understanding of the standard for green architecture.
   Select the design of a home that uses standard architectural design or nonrenewable, inefficient energy guidelines.
   Complete the Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet. Use the Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet to complete the following:

   • Determine the most efficient alternative energy design that would reduce the energy output through built-in calculation.
   • Compare the energy usage in the original to the new design of the chosen home.

   Redesign your chosen building to achieve a certified, silver, or gold level of LEED certification.
   Prepare a 10- to 12-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation and include the following:

   • Outline your idea for an alternative energy design that includes LEED architecture.
   • Determine the most energy-efficient design or alternative energy for the home or building you have chosen.
   • Describe how you might integrate sustainable energy sources and technologies into the design.
   • Report the energy savings of the new design.
   • Compare actions you might take in daily activities at home, when commuting, and to work to reduce the energy you consume.

   Note: The Microsoft Excel spreadsheet should automatically calculate the electricity used in a typical house once you insert the number of hours. In addition, include the power usage of standard appliances such as a water heater, refrigerator, lighting, computer, television, dishwasher, and so on.
   Present your Green LEED Architecture presentation.

   • For Local Campus students, these are 10- to 15-minute oral presentations accompanied by Microsoft PowerPoint presentations.
