Do a Little or Do a Lot: Sustainability Education
Description

This is a webinar hosted by Green Teacher (archived) with presenter Dave Wilton. Sustainability provides a real-world framework for connecting community issues to global issues and seeing them as opportunities for positive change rather than as insurmountable problems. Using the theme of Do A Little or Do A Lot, participants will see examples of how to integrate education for sustainability into their classrooms, schools, or districts. The intent is not to add more content to the curriculum, but to illuminate interconnections between existing classroom or school themes and capitalize upon the opportunities for critical thinking that arise from examining these interconnections. After attending this webinar, participants will leave with an understanding of what education for sustainability is and how they can incorporate sustainability into their teaching practices. Participants will learn about free curriculum resources that examine interconnections between economy, environment, and society.
