Sustainability Education Summer Institute 2011

Posted by Dave Wilton on December 8, 2010 at 2:11pm in Conferences and Professional Development Resources

The Sustainability Education Summer Institute 2011 will be held July 25-27, 2011 at IslandWood in Seattle, USA. SESI is a rich and vibrant opportunity for K-12 teachers and administrators and teacher education faculty and administrators to deepen their knowledge of education for sustainability (EfS) and apply it to their schools and programs.  

We’re currently soliciting proposals for sessions to fit within the following themes:

  • Introduction to Sustainability Education
  • Curriculum Integration: How to Bring Sustainability into the Classroom in a Real Way
  • Connecting Community & Education: Closing the Loop with the Neighborhood
  • Sustainability Education and Systems Thinking

Full descriptions of these themes are available on the web at: http://islandwood.org/sesi

If you are interested in leading a session that would help other educators further understand these areas, head over to the website and click on the “Request for Proposals” link on the left.

    Looks awesome... I tweeted it.  I have my own family experiential learning during that week but I think this sounds fabulous and will share with my educators. @weejan

    This is very important event just bad that it is far from where I am.  I am teaching in Africa, Botswana but we do alot of telecollation with American schools.
