Target Audience: Staff

ESD, Me and a Cup of Tea is an informal lunchtime monthly meet up where Strathclyde staff share their experience of embedding Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) into their teaching and curriculum. Each month we'll hear from a different member of staff who will discuss their approach to ESD over a cuppa. Most sessions will last between 30-45 minutes. There's no formal presentation and discussion is encouraged.

This month we will hear from Gregor Colville, Senior Teaching Fellow in Chemical & Process Engineering, who will share learnings and observations from his experiences before joining Strathclyde and as an accreditor for the Energy Institute.

Gregory will talk about embedding sustainable development in the engineering curriculum through problem-based learning and multi-disciplinary projects helps to reinforce students’ understanding that sustainable development should be viewed as ‘business as usual’ rather than as a standalone subject.

Gregor will be delighted to discuss how and why this content has been developed and would be interested in hearing feedback. Put on the kettle and join us online at 13.00pm on 17th April
