Sustainability in the Classroom: Assessment of Learning for Sustainability

This class is part of the Sustainability in the Classroom series.

Attention teachers! This four-class session is designed for educators who are interested in adapting their instruction to sustainability principles and in learning how food and the systems that bring food to our tables fit within the broader K-12 picture. The instructors for the course will help you discover how systems thinking, environmental understanding, economic awareness, and community involvement can be used as teaching tools. You will also learn about environmental and sustainability education mandates in Washington State and examine these standards in the context of relevant and experiential activities.

Other classes in the series include Systems Thinking in the Classroom, Approaches to an Edible Schoolyard, and Understanding Urban Food Systems.

The fee is $100.00 for the entire four-class series and $30.00 for each individual class. Registration for individual classes is open on a space available basis. Farm
snacks included.
