TARGET 1: SUSTAINABILITY IS INTEGRATED INTO CURRICULUM TO AN EXTENT THAT CONSCIENTIOUSLY EXTENDS KNOWLEDGE OF THE HELPFUL AND HARMFUL IMPACTS IT HAS FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN SYSTEMS WE DEPEND ON.
INDICATORS OF PERFORMANCE
- Input indicators, such as the presence of:
- Sustainability Fellows and/or sustainability-focused academic staff in each Academic Division
- Academic Division-level position statements outlining sustainability potential, impacts and
responsibilities - Sustainability considerations in Teaching and Learning Quality Assurance Committee (TALQAC) reviews, and Academic Board approval of course changes.
- Proportion of courses with sustainability-related content, such as intended learning outcomes, sustainability content as endorsed by TALQAC reviews or external accreditation, or similar
HOW FEIT IS RESPONDING
- We will continue with the FEIT course mapping to understand how and to what degree sustainability is integrated into FEIT curriculum
TARGET 2: GRADUATES HAVE INCREASED CAPABILITIES TO SHAPE, LEAD AND SUCCEED IN THE CAREERS, COMMUNITIES AND INDUSTRIES OF SUSTAINABLE SOCIETIES.
INDICATORS OF PERFORMANCE
- Number of completions from subjects and courses with sustainability related content
- Increase in students’ and graduates’ (self-reported) sustainability self efficacy (measure to be developed)
- Alumni Profile or case study demonstrating the impact our alumni have in sustainability is produced
HOW FEIT IS RESPONDING
- We will develop a sustainability leadership course and content
* We will identify high-profile alumni champions of sustainability that can inform our courses and engage with
students - We were awarded a Learning and Teaching Initiative Grant in 2022-2023 to work on development of a measure to track students' and graduates' (self-reported) sustainability self efficacy. A Teaching and Learning Laboratory seminar was delivered by Mark Latham on 31 October 2023 which shared progress on this work. Work is continuing in collaboration with the Office of the Provost and other faculties in 2024. Learn more about the work conducted here.
