@PatrickMayers4 I’m not your friend but I’ll give it a read..

To all my #Educ4750 friends exploring #SDG12 give this article a read! It offers so much insight into the importance of arming young students with knowledge of #sustainability #d=gs_qabs&u=%23p%3DSgQcrYobYTIJ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">scholar.google.com.au/scholar?hl=en&…

AR/VR technology has the potential to contribute to sustainability both directly by making certain processes sustainable, and indirectly by encouraging people to adopt more sustainable lifestyles. #UonTeach #EDUC4750 #SDG14 Find out more below! virtualimmersive.com.au/post/how-ar-vr…

@ImogenSlackSmi1 This is an awesome idea Imogen! Similar to the old sticking the times tables chart on the toilet door strategy, this will definitely be educating your students without them even realising!

I will be decorating my classroom with these Sustainability posters so my students are always reminded of the importance of sustainable practices. What are some other ways we can reiterate to our students the importance of sustainability? #SDG12 bit.ly/3wGI1mK

Would you use Virtual Reality (VR) technology in the classroom to allow your students to grasp a better understanding and a different perspective of particular environmental issues? #SDG14 #UonTeach #EDUC4750

@PatrickMayers4 Very interesting Patrick! A game based approach could be a super effective way to increase participation and get the class more engaged! Love your work pal!

What better way to educate young people in #sustainability than utilising technology? More specifically #Minecraft, an educational game already used by millions of young people worldwide? #Educ4750 #UoNTeach #SDG12

RiverSmart supplies fishing equipment for a fun day out fishing whilst educating our students on the importance of sustainable fishing and the damages overfishing causes to our rivers and oceans. #SDG14 #UonTeach #Educ4750

Teaming up with RiverSmart is a great way to get your students to see first hand the pollution levels that exist in their local river. There's no greater lesson than experience so for the students to be able to see and test the pollution levels themselves will be unreal. #SDG14

The two targets my students will be focusing on for their #SDG14 unit of work will be (14.1 - Reduce Marine Pollution) & (14.4 - Sustainable Fishing). What will your main targets be? #Educ4750 #UoNTeach

@bdcnly How good! I'm beginning to see more and more children's books suitable to #SDG14 Definitely a resource worth using when exploring the topic!

✨HELLO EDUCATORS!✨ Here are two books that celebrate small acts of green living that make a big impact on the environment while offering a positive primer on waste – where it comes from, where it ends up, and what we can all do to help reduce our rubbish. 🌳♻️☀️#SDG14 #Educ4750

Plenty of amazing books out there just like this one to educate our students on water pollution. #SDG14 #UonTeach #EDUC4750

I think the most important focus for #SDG14 is to protect our marine life from pollution, as they can die from ingestion of plastic or get entangled in it. How do you think we could best expose our students to this issue? #UonTeach #EDUC4750

@BlakeWatmore This looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing, I'll be sure to use this as a topic of discussion with my stage 3 class.

#seabins inbound for the Newcastle harbour! The ultimate plan is for funding for a network of 20 sea bins, sucking up 30 tonnes of garbage each year. #UoNTeach #SDG14 #Educ4750 abc.net.au/radio/newcastl…

A very interesting article on the colossal difference protecting a few more areas in our ocean can make. #UonTeach #Educ4750 #SDG14

Thank you for sharing Miss Lucy Thompson! I found this article very insightful and I would definitely recommend using this article to fellow teachers perhaps in a stage 3 setting. #UonTeach #Eudc4750 #SDG14

@chelsseck @netflix Holy Hector! That is very concerning. This is definitely something our future generation needs to learn about sooner rather than later. Thanks for sharing!

@Alicia08898047 Totally agree! Much more suitable for stage 3. No, I haven't had the opportunity to utilise this in the classroom yet but look forward to!

@LachlanMcCabe4 Yes Definitely! Thank you for sharing your resource. I would not use this in earlier primary years but I believe this could be watched in stage 3. Have you used this in your classroom yet? How did the students respond?

#SDG14 #UoNTeach #EDUC4750 #LifeBelowWater Would you use this as an educational tool in a primary school setting?

Wow! Who better than the man himself David Attenborough to give our students a greater insight on the dangers of overfishing and what we need to do to stop this issue. What do you think? #Educ4750 #UonTeach #SDG14
