@laura_marr1 Reflecting on this, it would be great to incorporate this into our future schools and classrooms to educate to our students the importance of a clean environment -waste free. Great resource!

A great text that provides the opportunity for many teaching and learning activities involving recycling, reusing and up-cycling.

A prime example of the benefits of an outdoor, green learning environment. Play-based learning is a strong way to teach sustainability to students.

Teacher knowledge for global education appears to be a barrier for sustainability education in our schools. Ferreira et al. (2014) argue, teachers need more professional development in this field to ensure students are equipped with the correct tools for global learning #UoNTeach

Using posters like this can offer a great lesson. Teachers can set up a gallery walk of posters around the classroom. Through an inquiry task, students will learn to care for our Earth, its people and provide them with perspective as global citizens.

Cross-curricula integration is a systemic facet of 21st Century teaching and learning. Hafeli et., al, (2005) extend this statement by stating that integrating curricula across KLA's fosters students learning.

#banthebag in action!
I Can't wait to be doing my Saturday morning shopping, with my freshly sewn bag from Nan, full of my meat and vegetable purchases - plastic FREE!
Onwards and upwards, Australia!

Two lots of groceries at the same supermarket checkout. It’s so easy to just not pick up a plastic bag and put your fruit and veg loose in the trolley! Say no to single use plastic produce bags and let our fruit and veg free! 🍏🍎🍋🍊🍅🥦🥕🌽🍌🍒🍓🍇🍍🥑

A great opportunity for small, local communities to get involved in. Imagine the resources and sustainable materials that could be implemented around your community!

[Mitchell Sanderson @MitchSandoUON]

Learning through cross-curriculum priorities is essential for all teachers. Including aspects such as #Sustainability into lessons or programs such as #schoolgarden is just one way this can be achieved!

@laura_marr1 How will you incorporate cross curricula pedagogy into your future classroom?

@laura_marr1

[Rick Wales @Rick_uon]

@laura_marr1 Walker et., al, (2017) elaborates, stating that stimulus and response methodologies can be enhanced when teaching via cross-curricula learning. Your point on how students process new information is accurate and can be fostered through engagement and student-centred activities.

@AsciakMatthew Fair dinkum, mate?

[Rick Wales @Rick_uon]

This is a fantatsic text that addresses sustainability and emphasising that we need to work together to reduce our impact as global citizens. #uonteach

[Rick Wales @Rick_uon]

@JasmineWard97 As a future educator I would hope so. Great resource for a unit on global perspectives. This resource will allow students to be aware, curious and interested in learning about the world and how it works. It's also an advocacy for global education and an agent of change #UoNTeach

3/3 This article brings up a discussion on whether teachers are receiving adequate professional development to teach sustainability in schools. They need to be equipped with knowledge and the correct resources to do so.
#Uonteach

[Rick Wales @Rick_uon]

1/3 The Sustainability Curriculum Framework is a wonderful resource for teachers who are seeking advice on how to incorporate sustainability into school curriculum in the early childhood years, the primary years and the first four years of high school. #Uonteach

[Rick Wales @Rick_uon]

2/3 Whitehouse (2014) contributes to this, as his article discusses opportunities and challenges within the Australian curriculum for teaching sustainability.

2/2 The article below demonstrates how how we can teach students about #sustainability in 21st Century classroom using De Bono's '6 Thinking Hats'.
- A must read for all pre-service teachers! #UoNTeach

1/2 Critical thinking and problem solving are not just important skills. They lie at the heart of educational success and should be taught in every curriculum that seeks to prepare students to become active and involved citizens of the 21st Century #UoNTeach
