Could not have said it better myself! #UoNTeach

I have learnt that engaging the community in units of work is vital. I have taught myself and been educated on some ways to do so; Create opportunities for the community to see the work, go to non-school events and use social media. Engaging all parents, volunteers and teachers.

By using twitter with other professionals and working towards preparing my unit of work I now understand students need to incorporate the 4 C’s in the future #UONTeach https://t.co/gV7gaIzdQa

Through delivery of my #Sustainability unit to a class, I know students will be given the the tools necessary to understand and make their own decisions and judgements on the importance of moving towards and maintaining a sustainable future. #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

Since using twitter as a resource to research my chosen topic on sustainability, I have accumulated a vast amount of resources and information that I will be utilising within the unit. #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@JordanM63755403 Yes that’s what I am aiming for!

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

My unit of work is going to be focused on waste reduction and re-use. Looking back on my research and general global issues I want to focus my work on promoting a clean, healthy and sustainable future. #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@GuyWalters10 What a great idea! I will have to look in to this more.

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

With #EarthDay happening only a couple of days ago, what do you think are some other ways of brining about a #globalawareness in regards to creating and maintaining a #sustainable earth? #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@GuyWalters10 It’s amazing the range of perspectives and just general information that we can accumulate through Twitter alone!

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@ShannonTwohill This book is amazing and displays the negative and harmful effects of human waste on the environment.

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@GuyWalters10 How tragic is it! I recently tweeted about an initiative (Seabins) that has been implemented in some countries and showing positive results to reduce ocean waste.

[Shannon Twohill @ShannonTwohill]

The Department of the Environment and Energy has an enormous range of information which can be useful in teaching students about recycling. The info ranges from types of recyclable plastic to policies and strategies to reduce waste. https://t.co/q6IyOk9scw #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

Through using Twitter, I have been able to gain key information that has helped create a distinct pathway in which I will focus my unit of work #Sustainability #UoNTeach

[Jamie Wakefield @jjamiewakefield]

Whilst constructing a unit plan on sustainability I have realised the benefit of real-world problem solving. Students can answer any hypothetical question about sustainability but when you link the activities to the local community. This is invaluable. #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

@JessLandrigan Yes I’ve seen your posts on this issue! I feel more and more companies are getting on board with eradicating and even recycling plastic products to make something new.

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

Another great #Sustainability initiative taken on by a universal company! Does anyone know of any other #PlasticReduction initiatives being implemented by large-scale companies or even individuals? #UoNTeach

[Rory Caban @CabanRory]

“Seabins” are an amazing and effective creation which is being used in some areas to clean up waste in the ocean. Has anyone seen or heard of any other inventions or initiatives that humans are implementing to reduce ocean waste? #UoNTeach #Sustainability #Plastic #GlobalGoals

[Planet Ark @PlanetArk]

Fantastic work by the @Seabin_project!

A great website to do with sustainability in schools is https://t.co/J674t026qa. As I discovered the website provides a range of useful information and resources for incorporating sustainability in the school setting.
