SUMMARY:Introduction to the Compass Tools: Systems Thinking for Sustainability in the Classroom (Onsite Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:This event is an onsite Introduction to the Compass Tools workshop hosted by the International School of Zug and Luzern\, Switzerland. This workshop will be held on August 31 and open for public. \n  \nAbout the Workshop\nThis highly interactive workshop will introduce participants to the fundamentals of systems thinking and teach them to use the versatile systems thinking tools\, The Sustainability Compass and the Systems Iceberg\, to integrate sustainability and climate issues into their work. Participants will leave this workshop with a plan to use systems thinking to integrate sustainability into their work or engage their students in action for sustainability. \n  \nWho should participate?\nAny classroom educator or school administrator who is eager to bring sustainability and systems thinking into their classrooms\, communities\, and culture is eligible to register. \n  \nWhat will you take away from this workshop?\n\nA shared language for whole faculty or school conversations about sustainability and systems and framework for reflecting on issues systemically.\nPowerful conversations making sense of complex issues.\nLesson ideas that educators can use in their classrooms the next day\, next week or as soon as they’re ready!\nUseful tools that can integrate sustainability and systems into any curriculum and every class level.\nAccess to our database of educator-sourced lesson plans.\nConnection to a global movement of educators for sustainability education.\n\n  \nREGISTRATION\n  \n  \n   \nDownload Flyer \n  \n  \nFacilitator\nLucy Thompson\nLucy has been an elementary classroom teacher for over 10 years\, working in Cambodia\, Lebanon\, Malaysia and Scotland.  She is currently teaching Grade 5 and is the Professional Learning Coordinator at International School Aberdeen. Outside of work\, she enjoys playing squash and being on the coast\, most recently sea kayaking. \n  \n  \n  \nGeraldine (Ged) Thomason\nAs an expat child\, Ged grew up in Zambia and Liberia. Her experiences there allowed her to consider different perspectives and sparked her love of the natural world. She always had a random collection of stones\, sticks\, feathers and seeds in her pockets and still does to this day. She loves to travel and became a travel agent so that she could continue to get to know the world. Later\, when her son was born and had some additional learning needs\, she discovered the inequalities in the education system. Disheartened by some teachers and encouraged by others\, she decided to become an educator. She wanted to become someone who could provide a safe\, loving\, equitable and inspiring space for any learner. As an international educator who has worked in the UK\, China\, Brunei\, Singapore\, France and now Germany\, she continues to work on this goal every day of the week. Her master’s in education for sustainability was provoked by her first experience with Compass Education and she is excited to be able to share her enthusiasm for these tools with other educators to help us develop passionate and thoughtful citizens. \n  \n\n  \nAre you looking to build a culture of sustainability in your school? Do you want to integrate systems thinking into your community through accessible and adaptable tools? \nThis program is available on-site or virtual (six hours) with flexible delivery in one to three-session formats.
