1. Identifying
sustainability connections relevant to my scholarly / professional field
- What kind of connections to sustainability can you identify in your field? (you may think of e.g. themes, or types of knowledge)
- What sustainability challenges and/or solutions are relevant in your field – and why? Think also about indirect linkages.
- In class, you started thinking of your practical leeway in developing your course and teaching. What about the bigger picture? What influences your possibilities, motivations or obstacles in developing your teaching? You may use the picture below as an inspiration to your reflection. (Picture adapted from: Thomas, I.
