Teaching STEM for Global Sustainability with PhET

О курсе

PhET Interactive Simulations (https://phet.colorado.edu/), a project of the University of Colorado Boulder, provides free, research-based, interactive simulations for teaching science and mathematics across all educational levels. Used by millions of learners worldwide, these simulations make STEM concepts visual, dynamic, and accessible. In this course, you will learn how to use PhET simulations in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through this approach, you will connect foundational STEM topics to global challenges, helping your students develop a deeper and more relevant understanding of the world. You will engage as a learner with model lessons, explore a wide range of simulations, and be guided through PhET-based design strategies that support deep conceptual understanding while connecting STEM topics to the SDGs. By the end of the course, you will have participated in discussion activities, designed a contextualized global STEM learning experience, and reflected on its implementation in your own classroom.
