ESD Learning Formats

ESD-suitable learning environments promote design skills through holistic activation and are characterised by their focus on the future, the living environment, action, reflection and solutions. They also consistently promote specialist skills in sustainable development.

Overview

Which learning environments and teaching/learning formats are suitable for effective ESD-oriented teaching? Inspiring and motivating learning environments that enable problem-solving learning and critical engagement with sustainable development through social interaction are suitable. Self-directed, participatory learning opens up space for creativity and experiences of self-efficacy. This enables learners to turn knowledge into action and help shape transformation. Formats such as debates and case studies, simulation games, project work, and many more are suitable.
