    Themes of the session:

    • Teaching methods
    • Values in teaching and assessment




    • HOMEWORK:

      • Assignment 5
      • Try the Self-study tool on integration of sustainability in courses and give us feedback on it. The tool is in Webropol: link here
        • (if you do not have an own course at the moment, you can use some course you know as an example and imagine that you would be developing it - the main purpose is just to try the pilot tool and give us feedback on its usefulness. We don't know yet, if this kind of a tool should be included to the Toolbox for teachers or not)
      • Readings: Moser S. (2015). Whither the heart (-to-heart)? Prospects for a humanistic turn in environmental communication as the world changes darkly (please scroll down for the file)

      • Prepare to discuss during the session:
        • What kind of emotions and bodily reactions have you encountered as a teacher in your students in regard to (un)sustainability related questions (e.g. climate or eco anxiety)?
        • What about yourself as a teacher - what kind of emotions and reactions have you identified (if any)?
        • What could help with difficult feelings and emotions? Is there something that especially teacher could do (or definitely shouldn’t do)?
