Engaging Mindfully With the Commons: A Case of Caribbean Teachers’ Experience With ESD
2015
Down, Lorna
A study of teachers’ responses to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in a graduate course in Literature and Education for Sustainable Development, at the School of Education, The University of the West Indies, Mona, revealed that ESD can change indifference to the “commons” to one of mindfulness about local and global sustainability. Through a combination of three main teaching approaches, these teachers have become more aware of sustainability issues and have been motivated to take action to address these. Equally important, these teachers have continued to attend to sustainability and so have reoriented their teaching for sustainability.
