About
In this two-hour, interactive workshop we’ll dive into how educators can bring digital sustainability to life in their teaching. Together, we’ll explore why responsible digital habits matter more than ever and how they connect to students’ everyday experiences.
We’ll address key questions, such as: How can we help students understand the environmental impact of their digital choices? and What practical steps can educators take to embed digital sustainability into everyday teaching?
Through practical discussions and hands-on ideas, you’ll discover effective ways to integrate digital sustainability into your lessons, making it meaningful and relevant, regardless of your subject specialism.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of how to embed digital sustainability in your teaching, along with a curated collection of activities and resources to support you beyond the workshop.
