At the end of the session, participants will be invited to beta test our “EfS Reality Check,” a new tool designed for educators to determine the extent to which their school is already educating for sustainability, and to provide insight on strategic next steps.

Are you educating for sustainability? How do you know?  In this 2-hour interactive webinar, participants will learn about the attributes of assessments that produce learning for a sustainable future.  We will then explore and discuss exemplary EfS assessment instruments , and engage in the process of analyzing student work for evidence of the knowledge, skills and attitudes that characterize Education for Sustainability. Finally, we will celebrate what the research is telling us about the impact EfS is having on students, teachers, and communities.  

At the end of the session, participants will be given a “take home” tool to self assess their own assessment practices so that they can identify the next steps they want to take to improve their practice.
