Download or read book Education for Sustainable Development in Further Education written by Denise Summers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will enable teachers and managers in the post-compulsory sector to consider a range of approaches to embed Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in their practice in the post-compulsory sector. There will be the opportunity to consider key debates, useful links and suggested reading to encourage further investigation and development of practice. Fundamentally, this book aims to empower teachers to critically analyse ESD through their own subject specialisms, engage in the debate and learn with their students.
