Currently in France, there is an evolution of the teaching theme of energy that takes greater account of society debates. This affects the disciplinary knowledge and situations involved in teaching, and raises questions about how theorizing the design of resources. The design theory developed in the case of disciplinary teaching, around the triangle Knowing-Teaching-Learning, must be adapted. The social background of the theme led us to consider non-disciplinary knowledge, to transpose the general issues into more specific questions then into situations to be studied. The article presents theoretical design tools for the "energy challenge". The analysis of the theme allows us to offer a teaching sequence aimed at reconciling society issues and learning.
