Course Description

Students increasingly care about the urgent global issue of climate change. But what do teachers need to know about the topic? How should they engage with climate in classes? And how can teachers support their students to take effective action in the issues that matter to them?

This course adopts a global perspective on the themes of sustainable development, ecological footprints, global justice, and poverty, and how these influence and are influenced by climate change. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this course recognizes the contributions of teachers of all subjects and ages to meaningful climate action.

In this course, participants will learn through learner-centered activities, such as group discussions, debates, case studies, and role-plays, and be able to use them in their classes. Each module will explore the root causes of global challenges, and build the knowledge, values, attitudes, and skills teachers need to empower their students.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to integrate climate change and global citizenship into their lesson plans. They will also be able to lead whole-school action projects that engage the community and produce meaningful results.
