EDCT 5758 - Book Study: Teaching Climate Change and the Environment Crisis

Delivery Options Distance Learning

Course Description

This course provides a critical resource for today’s students about humanity’s responsibility for the Earth. To confront the climate crisis, we need to think differently, build differently, and teach differently. This course provides classroom-friendly readings on climate change, energy, water, food, and pollution, as well as people who are working to make things better. At a time when it’s become increasingly obvious that life on Earth is at-risk, this course provides a valuable resource to help students see what’s wrong and imagine viable solutions. Rather than dwell in powerlessness, this course enables students and educators to respond proactively.
