I already read up on it on the gridcoin website.

Proof of work requires that you spend a lot of electricity and computation power to solve a calculation in order to create the next block & gain rewards.

Proof of stake requires far less electricity/computation-power and uses your balance to try and create the next block. The more coins you have the more likely you'll create the next block & gain your rewards.
