Implementing Climate Change Education Courses in Faculties of Education

After a summer of wildfires, heatwaves, and floods, introducing Climate Change Education (CCE) as a part of pre-service teacher education has never been more critical.  Join Dr. Paul Berger and Dr. Ellen Field as they share their experiences and research (forthcoming, 2024) into implementing CCE courses in Lakehead University’s pre-service teacher education program. They will introduce how to engage students in the grim prognosis, political chaos, available solutions, climate activism, and emotional processing practices, all components of CCE, as well as invite participants to share their thoughts on climate emergency teaching in their programs. This webinar is offered in partnership with the Accelerating Climate Change Ed in Teacher Education program.
