Education for a Sustainable Future

This book illustrates how sustainability, information technologies, and envisioning the future can be effectively woven into an integrated educational experience. By understanding what it takes to build a sustainable community, students will develop the skills needed to engage successfully in a sustainable society. They will explore their own values, the values of the community and the values of society at large. Students will build awareness of the choices they make and determine whether or not these choices will support their future. Using the real world as their classroom, students will participate in gathering and analyzing data, clarifying values, listening, speaking, thinking creatively, and making decisions about their community.
