Integrating Sustainability and Climate Change Adaptations into Your Curriculum
In January 2018, Butte College hosted a Faculty Train the Trainer event that brought together faculty from a wide range of academic departments. The participants focused on integrating sustainability and climate change adaptation into existing curricula, looking in-depth at proposed sustainability minor and major degree program frameworks. Participants used their own curriculum to brainstorm ways to make energy, sustainability, and climate change part of their course work in a relevant and applied manner. Dr. Mark Stemen from CSU Chico worked with the group to provide a case study of his own experience using CalAdapt tools in his Geography courses, a project which supports local policy improvements at the City and County level. He encouraged faculty to engage students around issues that will influence their lives and identities in the coming decades, and the opportunity to provide skills and tools to build their community's climate resilience. Resources are provided here to learn more about the training at Butte College and to plan a similar training at your college or university. To request, click here.
