Resources taken from an Education for Sustainability Workshop

The following activity involved learners reading the definitions of Sustainable Development and highlighting the key words that resonated with the learners. Learners then have to state what Sustainability means to them.

The following image is of a handout given that shows how values, attitudes and behaviours are related and how these affect Sustainability.
These three activities followed from the above hand out. The first activity required learners to think about what is most important to them. Using the list of values on the sheet, learners were required to write down three of their three most highly valued values. Following this activity, learners were then required to analyse one of their core values.


The last activity involved working in a pair. Learners were required to take one of two positions. One of the learners had to hold a photograph of a situation. They were first required to be an outsider looking onto the situation. The other learner asked them the questions in Step One. The learner holding the photograph was then required to put themselves in the position of those in the photograph and answer the questions in Step Two. The third step involved the learner holding the photograph to reflect on the experience.



These activities were apparently taken from Murray P 2011 The Sustainable Self : A Personal Approach to Sustainability Education
