Course overview and purpose:
In 2015 the United Nations adopted the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”: its 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) are a 15-year plan to stimulate action in areas perceived to be of critical importance for humanity and the planet. Where are we with those goals? What are the new developments? How can SDGs be used as a framework and tool to support students in developing their research, critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and communication skills?
With this course, you will become acquainted with why different goals were adopted, what their contents are and how to create and share your own learning resources in order to teach SDGs. You will learn practical learning activities, teaching tools, and best practices based on SDGs, and you will find out how to create and execute lessons for your students. Take action in your classroom and make your students ready for a sustainable future!
Learning outcomes:
Improve knowledge of the different UN Sustainable Development Goals
Learn to use tools and practical activities to prepare creative lesson plans with the SDGs in mind
Get to know best practices on the SDGs and how they can help you in your class
