The aim of this book is to support and inspire teachers to
contribute to much-needed processes of sustainable development and
to develop teaching practices and professional identities that
allow them to cope with the specificity of sustainability issues
and, in particular, with the teaching challenges related to the
ethical and political dimension of environmental and sustainability
education. Bringing together recent scholarship on the topic, this
book translates state-of-the-art academic research into teaching
models, methods and tools. Starting with an outline of the
challenge of sustainability, it offers insights and models for
understanding the interesting yet ambiguous concept of 'sustainable
development' and the complex process of transforming society in a
more sustainable direction (Part I). It then goes on to provide a
guide to preparing courses and lessons as well as tools for
reflection about teaching practices and the multiplicity of
approaches to addressing ethical and political challenges in
sustainable development teaching (Part II). Finally, the book
offers useful conceptual frameworks, models and typologies about
the concrete design and implementation of sustainable development
teaching (Part III). This book will be essential reading for
students of education, as well as teachers in compulsory and higher
education and sustainability education researchers.
