| The Workshops |
|
|
|
|
|
An
area of support many teachers have
requested for the Year of the
Environment is an introductory course on
sustainable development education.
Since 1998's Holland Report, this has
become an increasingly important concept
for schools, and it is now explicitly
part of the curriculum. |
 |
|
|
|
|
|
| What does the
term mean and what are the implications? |
| Where can we
find useful teaching ideas and resources? |
| What work
might we be already doing which relates to
sustainable development? |
| How might we
plan around this concept? |
|
|
|
|
|
Throughout
Autumn 2000 Tide~ is offering day
workshops on sustainable development
education. These days have been
designed in particular for teachers who
are relatively new to the concepts, key
documents, and practice of sustainable
development education. |
 |
|
|
|
|
The workshops
will be facilitated by the Development Education
Centre, with the support of teachers with
experience in this field.
Workshops will
include:
| discussion
about the meaning and implications of
sustainable development. |
| a sharing of
teaching ideas and practice. |
| space to
consider resourcing opportunities. |
| time to engage
in planning for work in your own school. |
