Sustainability on the move: walk the scope (winter term)
How do you address sustainability in your learning assignments? The kick-off walk invites participants to
share their specific contexts of learning assignments,
discuss learning-related basics of sustainability (Education for Sustainable Development, ESD),
identify an individual agenda of further steps and food for thought to be considered.
A follow-up to the format is planned for the summer term - with the title: Sustainability on the move: walk the talk (summer term)
How do you implement sustainability in your learning assignments? Continuing walks encourage participants to
explore and integrate sustainability-related drivers for selected learner settings and target audiences,
reflect their experiences and refine viable options through trial-and-error,
invite colleagues to join sustainability on the move.
The two events do not explicitly build on each other, so they can also be attended separately.
The work units are distributed among the fields of action as follows:
Lehr-/Lernplanung & Curriculmsentwicklung (LLC) – 4 AE
