Education for a Sustainable Future

Project Homepage:

The Education for a Sustainable Future Project, managed by the Cobb County School District in Georgia, will develop technology-rich, inquiry-based K-12 learning materials to address sustainable development topics. Sustainable development education investigates critical environment and educational issues that help students understand their future and create models for preferable futures. The study of sustainable development is conducted with technology-based tools that assist planning, modeling, and decision-making. Technology also provides the collaboration tools to bring international expertise to the schools to support teachers as they develop and implement materials. With the guidance of world class experts and a national consortium, teachers in Georgia schools will develop and test student-generated investigations and projects, and associated software tools. The material will be revised and disseminated throughout 8 Southern districts through workshops and netcourses for 400 teachers and placed on the Web.
