What Participants Say
I highly recommend the course, not only as a way to learn how to Educate for Sustainability, but to reframe your own way of thinking around the topic, so you can become a better educator.
This training has helped me shift my worldview a little and has given me the tools to hopefully produce programs and projects that seriously advocate for sustainability.
I not only gained valuable insights into Education for Sustainability but also discovered new perspectives on how to effectively teach and train others in this area.
I thoroughly enjoyed getting to work amongst so many passionate people, having access to a wonderful program builder, and a wealth of knowledge for working backwards.
I would highlight the innovative teaching methods and fresh perspectives that were presented. Certain parts of the training were particularly eye-opening, demonstrating how to seamlessly integrate sustainability into less obvious units and topics. I’m excited about the potential to make sustainability a central theme in various lessons, encouraging students to think critically about their role in creating a sustainable future.
