Peter -
I just happened upon this book and I thought it goes right with your
list:
SUSTAINABLE
EDUCATION (Schumacher Briefing No. 6)
by Sterling, Stephen
5.00
$7.10
5.55
How
will we move towards sustainability? By learning through crisis, or by
design? In this Briefing, Stephen Sterling points out that ? Progress
towards a more sustainable future critically depends on learning, yet
most education and learning take no account of sustainability ? The
reorientation of education towards sustainable development since the
Agenda 21 agreement of 1992 has been very slow ? Education is largely
behind other fields in developing new thinking and practice in response
to the challenge of sustainability. The Briefing argues that an
ecological view of educational theory, practice and policy is necessary
to assist the sustainability transition. It then shows how ?sustainable
education??a change of educational culture towards the realization of
human potential and the interdependence of social, economic and
ecological wellbeing?can lead to transformative learning. It ends with
a discussion of change strategies, and includes action suggestions for
both policymakers and practitioners.
