"Educational design and teaching for sustainability"@en . . "6" . "Contents:\nThis course enables students to understand, design, facilitate and experience sustainability-oriented teaching, learning and capacity-building processes. It is targeted towards students who seek to build their capacities as future sustainability-oriented educators, and who like to like to design and engage with deep learning processes fostering responsibility and transformation in educational contexts (e.g. a school), in communities (e.g. a group of citizens), and in organizations (e.g. a local government).\n\nThe course is envisioned as a ‘laboratory’. It is intended to facilitate students' abilities to integrate the theory and the practice of education, teaching and learning aiming at fostering responsible engagement into sustainability challenges, at the crossroad between science and society. Based on their own aspirations, students design an educational initiative of their own choosing to address a sustainability aspect they care about, and put into action their didactical abilities while considering the socio-cultural characteristics of the context of their initiative. Through this initiative, students gain the tools to design an educational module or trajectory, and to facilitate the cultivation of multiple ways of knowing, being and doing that help responding to sustainability challenges. Depending on the nature of the initiative, students can experiment with a variety of creative methods of teaching, facilitation, and capacity-building in order to encourage mental, emotional, somatic, moral and aesthetic forms of learning. Students, from a variety of disciplines, closely interact throughout the course by working in peer groups supporting each other and exchanging feedback.\nLearning outcomes:\nAfter successful completion of this course students are expected to be able to:\n- understand education and learning theories and how they can be applied for cultivating people's sustainability-oriented understanding, engagement, and transformation;\n- understand the key challenges of teaching, learning, and capacity-building in relation to a wicked problem such as sustainability in formal education settings (e.g. in higher education) and non-formal or informal settings (e.g. in multi-stakeholder community);\n- identify a sustainability challenge they care about and articulate its characteristics;\n-design an educational initiative of own choice (e.g. a module, course, training, blog, etc.) to respond to that identified sustainability challenge;\n- apply a variety of teaching and learning activities and articulate and justify corresponding theoretical underpinnings from the education and learning sciences;\n- support peer learning by providing constructive feedback to the design of the intervention and didactical performance of peers from their own and other disciplines;\n- reflect on their (future) role and purpose as an educational professional and the competences needed to perform this role within the context of sustainability challenges." . .

Students will gain insight into the socio-economic causes and the characteristics of pollution and degradation of the natural environment, including the effects on human beings, the atmosphere, ecosystems and other organisms. This two-year programme is based on an interdisciplinary approach. Students learn to develop analytical tools and models, as well as technologies, socio-political arrangements and economic instruments to prevent and control the wicked environmental and sustainability issues like climate change, biodiversity loss and resource depletion."@en . .
