PRE-TASK FOR THE FIRST CLASS
In preparation for Friday’s Communicating Sustainable Solutions class, each team will familiarize themselves with a different sustainability dimension (this does not mean that you will work with this particular sustainability dimension throughout the course). Knowledge of the different dimensions is important when you start to work on your problem-based scenarios, so we're simply building the base with this activity. In the first class, you will have to explain the sustainability dimension to the other teams (you will have time to prepare in class, but make sure you do the reading beforehand).
The reading material is on the open access course Sustainable.now, which offers a thorough package of basic knowledge on the different dimensions of sustainability. You can access the material with your Aalto credentials (choose: Login with HAKA- account) at: https://digicampus.fi/course/view.php?id=1735
