Dear Educators, FOREWORD
 
 
Greetings from CSE’s Green Educators’ Network (GEN)!

We present to you the latest edition of our monthly newsletter, EarthWise. As advocates for progressive education in environmental studies, we are committed to providing you with a valuable resource that goes beyond the conventional boundaries of learning.

In our monthly lecture series for September, we hosted a session focused on equipping college educators with the tools, knowledge, and strategies to effectively teach climate change in their classrooms. The session was facilitated by CSE expert Trishant Dev who guided educators through the latest developments in climate science, as well as innovative methods to engage students in climate-related discussions. This month, we’re excited to invite you to share your innovative activity ideas to teach climate change, by participating in our exclusive contest, Pedagogy for the Planet! We’re looking for creative, experiential ways to teach climate change — whether through hands-on experiments, role-play, community projects or multimedia activities. Share how you have inspired students to think critically about the climate crisis.

We recognise your pivotal role in imparting knowledge and fostering environmental consciousness among your students. In this journey, EarthWise aims to provide you with well-researched articles, resources, and stories to aid your teaching.

If you wish to provide any feedback or contribute to the newsletter, please write to us at gen@cseindia.org.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback!


Warmly,
The University Programme Team
