This book will enable teachers and managers in the
post-compulsory sector to consider a range of approaches to embed
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in their practice in
the post-compulsory sector. There will be the opportunity
to consider key debates, useful links and suggested reading to
encourage further investigation and development of
practice. Fundamentally, this book aims to empower teachers
to critically analyse ESD through their own subject specialisms,
engage in the debate and learn with their students.
Democratic and participative approaches introduced will help
readers to question traditional transmissive styles of teaching
and learning and move on to the radical and transformative
approaches required to embrace ESD. Therefore this book, whilst
including illustrative examples, will encourage the reader to
look at their own subject specialisms, practice, interests and
those of their students to co-construct a curriculum that embeds
ESD.
