Develop Professional Learning for Teaching About Climate Change

This initiative proposes to enhance climate change education by developing professional learning opportunities for instructors and educational leaders, focusing on pedagogical practices and inclusive teaching strategies. These opportunities aim to equip educators with the skills and resources necessary to effectively integrate climate change topics into their courses while fostering hope and engagement among students. Actionable items include:

• Establish faculty learning communities and workshops dedicated to sharing best practices in climate change education.
• Create web-based courses and multimedia campaigns to disseminate teaching strategies and resources.
• Develop web-based asynchronous courses for faculty to learn and practice teaching these concepts.
