Sommario/riassunto |
|
There has been considerable progress in the incorporation of sustainable development into the curricula of higher education institutions. Study on these developments has included research on competences for sustainable development and pedagogical approaches to develop such competences. However, there has been limited research on the connection between how courses are delivered (i.e. pedagogical approaches) and how they may affect sustainability competences. This book examines pedagogical approaches for developing sustainability competences through comparing 17 higher education institutions from 13 countries, analysing how students’ perception of how sustainability competences are being developed and which pedagogical approaches are being used for this purpose. This book brings together practice-based original research on the connection between developing sustainability competences and the pedagogical approaches used. |
