Recenzii
A highly relevant and important resource for our times. The book provides great examples of how sustainability can be woven into any primary curriculum. It is full of thoughtful and informative ideas, case studies and clarification around the misconceptions linked with sustainability education.
It's easy to see why teachers favour this guide over other resources as it's just so comprehensive. Written by two highly experienced educators Stephen Scoffham and Steve Rawlinson, this book contains advice for teaching sustainability issues across every subject between the ages of 3-14. With 180 age-specific activities, this is a treasure trove of inspiration and advice that every educator should possess.
This wonderful book presents sustainability education for all education readers, from researchers and pedagogy lecturers to teachers and teacher education students. The ideas and presentation are original and engaging and will have a great impact on practice . A key textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students looking at sustainability education.
Anyone concerned with educating young people today should have a copy of this book. I would say that it is the most essential book for all teachers now and in future at KS1, KS2 and KS3.
Stephen Scoffham and Steve Rawlinson, along with their ten expert contributors, have produced a work that should be a 'must read' for all those associated with education... In effect, the book is both a manifesto and a manual for embedding sustainability in schools.
This book is a hopeful, thought-provoking and timely resource grounded in the classroom, drawing upon research about sustainability and sustainability education... This book contains a wealth of creative teaching strategies which are quick and manageable to implement in the classroom.
A wonderful resource to get any school started on its now essential journey towards sustainability education.
The guide is an essential reading for those who engage in teaching and learning about the earth. The book is a capsule on sustainability on understanding the topic, its place in curriculum and teaching pedagogies. It discusses the current needs in transforming education to address the demands of the planet.
The educational system we have today was designed to suit the needs of the 19th and 20th century. Now that system is fast becoming out of date! Sustainability Education is a timely book outlining an education fit for the 21st century. The authors and contributors have presented a practical way forward to transform teaching in schools from job centred education to life centred and nature centred education. Every teacher concerned with the wellbeing of people and our precious planet Earth should use this publication as a handbook for regenerative learning.
This timely guide is posed to reorient thinking on sustainability education. Most importantly, young children are invited to take an active part in this journey. Authors throughout the guide display great care in their pedagogical approaches. The message of harmony, coexistence, peace, love, balance and justice is clear.
Sustainability Education is a timely and vital manual containing a wide variety of ideas to encourage, support and guide practitioners of all age groups on weaving sustainability into their teaching.
The key to tackling any challenge is first to understand it, and perhaps the greatest challenge we face is climate change. So how we approach sustainability education for a younger generation is absolutely vital. This book goes beyond the important discussion of wider issues, to focus on the role of education in sustainability and navigating its complexities. It also sets out practical approaches for educators who are on the front line of helping future generations understand the challenges of the planet they are inheriting. It is an important contribution to an increasingly vital area in education.
This pivotal book guides us to see sustainability education through a creative, confident and research-rich narrative. By exploring pedagogy, classroom ideas and key enquiry questions, this innovative book challenges and supports all educators towards practical, explanatory critical thinking, enabling action and understanding, vital for the futures for all learners.
A superb discussion of the notion of sustainability and the importance of including sustainability education in the primary curriculum, while illustrating how this can be achieved. A pleasure to read and learn from.
Sustainability Education is an engaging and compelling read which deftly weaves together rich understandings from research with suggestions and ideas for practice.
This excellent book should be essential reading for all primary, middle and preparatory school head teachers and policy makers, especially at the Department for Education... Society's future is full of challenges for all educators but this first-class book provides plenty of ideas as to how we can be optimistic about the future.
