Educating for
Sustainability
|
| |
What
teaches sustainability? Educators show that the world is rich in
possibilities, engage with real problems, teach practical competence and
analytical skills, foster social awareness and civic participation, and
guide students and themselves to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow
with grace, skill, collaboration, appreciation of beauty, and a commitment
to ethical and sustainable care for all the planet's inhabitants.
Every university has a formal
curriculum displayed in its catalog and course schedules. The hidden
curriculum is taught through its practices, its use of the land, the
structure of its buildings and its days, the food and events and activities
that are offered. In the classroom, students learn skills in a
subject. Everywhere else on campus, they learn a style of life.
The entirety of their experience is what they leave with. Sustainable
campuses and sustainability in the curriculum ensure that they learn how to
imagine and realize sustainability well before leaving.
