21st Century Classroom
Overview
Sustainable development has become a focal issue in recent years. In 2015, the United Nations adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which were unanimously agreed upon by all member states.
In this open lesson, the speaker will use drama-based teaching methods and books to guide students, enhancing their interest in sustainable education and broadening their global perspectives. The class will showcase successful examples of drama teaching techniques such as still image, thought tracking, questioning characters, and conscience alley. These methods create scenarios for students to experience the environment of the time and empathise with different stakeholders. This, in turn, fosters a personal connection and response to the goals of sustainable education.
