(Green) Gifts that Keep On Giving
PER UN APPRENDIMENTO SOSTENIBILE E DURATURO
Sustainable learning and Education (SLE) fosters long-term, meaningful understanding and retention while promoting a sense of responsibility in both one’s own learning and in life.It’s supportive, inclusive, collaborative, encourages reflection and gives learners agency.
For language teachers, it encompasses many already-familiar teaching practices - from citizenship and critical thinking to life skills and social emotional learning.
In this workshop, we’ll explore opportunities to integrate key aspects of SLE into Scuola Media classes, either directly from coursebooks or as freestanding activities.
