Higher Education for Sustainable Development[electronic resource] /by Kerry Shephard. - 1st ed. 2015. - VI, 131 p.online resource.

Introduction -- PART I: DEVELOPING A GROUNDED THEORY OF HIGHER EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABILITY -- Chapter 1. Sustainability and ES/ESD Missions: Where are We Now, How Did We Get Here and Where to from Here? -- Chapter 2. Educational Research to Find a Way Forward: Methods and Results -- Chapter 3. A Grounded Theory about ES/ESD in Higher Education -- PART II: EDUCATIONAL RATIONALES TO UNIFY THE EFFORTS OF HIGHER EDUCATION TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY OBJECTIVES -- Chapter 4. Affect, Cognition and Criticality: Some Educational Theory for University Teachers and for Educational Developers -- Chapter 5. Values Education for Sustainability, Academic Integrity and Professional Values -- Chapter 6. The Challenges of Education for Critical Action -- Chapter 7. A Way Forward.

This book asks how higher education should approach the task of educating for sustainability and then sets to answering it. It provides a guide for those who advocate for sustainability and for those who do not and makes a point of emphasising that all in higher education have the capacity and willingness to contribute in some way. The challenge is to find an approach that unifies the efforts of higher education teachers towards sustainability objectives, rather than dividing them. People at universities across the world were consulted and a grounded theory was devised. This encourages all university teachers to teach what they want to teach openly and honestly, about sustainability or not; but on the way to ensure that their students develop the critical skills that will enable them to fully understand what is being taught and what they are learning. .
