Sustainability Education

О курсе

Sustainability Education is reshaping how we teach—and how we act—in a rapidly changing world. In this MOOC, you’ll explore the emerging field of Sustainability Education (SE) and learn how it connects to Sustainability, Climate Education, and Environmental Science. Designed for educators, students, and lifelong learners, the course shows how environmental change intersects with justice, poverty, and inequality—and why those connections matter for audiences across the lifespan. You’ll trace pivotal moments in global environmental history from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, examining the scientific discoveries, political debates, and social movements that shaped today’s understanding of climate and environmental change. From there, you’ll dive into the foundations of environmental justice in the twenty‑first century, focusing on how race, class, and other social factors influence climate policy and environmental decision‑making in the United States. Finally, you’ll build practical policy literacy by exploring how federal and state laws, regulations, and political processes drive real‑world environmental outcomes. Join a global community of learners and gain the context, language, and tools to teach—and lead—more effectively.
