Supporting integration: With the CRC, integrating sustainability into the curriculum can take many forms: “makeovers” of existing units and courses, integration of specific lessons, and the creation of curriculum maps and frameworks to guide instruction at a broader, systems level. Whether you want to integrate a few lessons, redesign a unit, or create an entirely new courses, the CRC is your community for resources and support.
Great for teacher education courses! The CRC supports teacher educators to integrate sustainability into a range of subjects from social foundations to methods. With the CRC as a course resource, teacher educators can support their students to learn sustainability content; create lessons and units; and develop a philosophical framework emphasizing democracy, community, and ethics.
