GSELS Learning Network: Transforming Paradigm
Awarding 6 hours of
professional development credit
This workshop offers an overview of Earth Ethics
Institute’s Global Sustainability and Earth
Literacy Studies (GSELS) Learning Network.
Participants learn about development and
operations of GSELS. GSELS faculty learn how to
broaden their GSELS-designated courses to
include additional GSELS course criteria, as
well as best practices of faculty learning
communities. Participants explore Sustainable
Education, a concept created by Stephen Sterling
and described as “a change of educational
culture, one which develops and embodies the
theory and practice of sustainability in a way
which is critically aware."
Contrast will be
made of mechanistic versus ecological
worldviews, and a multidisciplinary
collaborative approach to education will be
endorsed.
Facilitated
by Mike Matthews, EEI Collegewide Director

WE-LAB Virtual Workshop
The Water
and Energy Learning and Behavior Program (WE-LAB),
focuses on delivering urgent and highly relevant
environmental education about the water-energy nexus to
South Florida residents, teachers, and school children.
Through educational and interactive workshops, the WE-LAB
seeks to motivate community-wide water-energy-saving
behaviors and foster long-term environmental stewardship
through money-saving actions. WE-LAB participants will learn
to track their water and energy use at home and apply these
new behaviors learned, in order to take action and make
improvements, as well as learning how to properly recycle.
