Issues in Teaching and Learning of Education for Sustainability [PDF ebook] 
Theory into Practice

In a fast-changing, globalising world, the teaching and implementation of a curriculum for Education for Sustainability (Ef S) has been a challenge for many teachers. Issues in Teaching and Learning of Education for Sustainability highlights the issues and challenges educators and academics face in implementing Ef S and gives examples of what an Ef S curriculum may look like and how some institutions translate the theory into practice.Organised into three parts, the volume looks at: the who (Ef S for whom), the what (Ef S curriculum) and the how (translating from theory to practice). The concluding chapter provides ideas and directions on where the world can proceed regarding sustainability education and how it can help in the teaching and learning of sustainability. Considering social issues such as poverty, education, health, culture and the use of natural resources, this book proposes a different path towards Education for Sustainability.Providing concrete data on the realisation of sustainable development, Issues in Teaching and Learning of Education for Sustainability will be of interest to geographers, geography educators and professionals concerned with Education for Sustainability.
