Here we are two weeks out from Christmas and busy busy. Three new courses and a resource to develop, but no panic there is always time to post a blog, eh Leigh!
Education for Sustainability is a staff development course aimed to upskill staff on what EfS actually is and how it can be implemented. It involves approximately 6 readings with questions and discussion after each. This is a great opportunity for all - literally as it's all online and freely available on the wiki - to think about how they as educators can educate for sustainability within their subject area.
Sustainable Practice 1 and 2 will be run initially for the Tourism and Travel students, but are generic courses open to the whole polytech. Sustainable Practice 1 is an introduction to Sustainability and is very student driven. Sustainable Practice 2 is industry/subject specific where students look at how they are practice sustainably within their profession. Personally I am looking forward to some interaction with the student population again. It will be interesting to see where students are at with the sustainability issue, student directed/negotiated work and action oriented learning!
The resource being developed by Sam Mann and myself is intended to support staff in integrating sustainable practice into their teaching.
As for the photo. That's me showing off my nappy free baby. He does wear pants most of the time, but not a nappy in site during the day. I guess that's applicable to Midwifery and their Sustainable Development paper! Cheers. Have a great Christmas and New Year break, with lots of fun family time and recreation. Love anna :)

Good on ya anna.. cept this post (and the one before it) needs a title. Without a title, it is difficult to link to the individual posts you make.
I didn't realise you and Sam were working on this.. I thought it was you and Steve.. or Barry. Who knows what going on in this mad house! Could you include a hyperlink to the works you are doing?
As for your nappy less bub! I have a book saved on my Amazon wishlist about raising babies without nappies! Just for if or when that time comes my way. But now I don't need the book.. I have you to teach me. Perhaps you could make a Wikieducator page with how to raise your baby without nappies!
oh, and perhaps you could check out the little conversation going on on my blog...
Good on you for the nappiless thing- thank gooodness my kids are beyond that now. Sarah
I think there's stuff about nappiless babies on this wiki: http://ecomidwife.wetpaint.com/
Thanks Leigh
I would be more than happy to teach you how to raise your baby without nappies. We have been running a group called Conscious Parenting for a year now. We support each other in raising our babies without nappies among other parenting techniques. In return you could teach me how to use this blog!!! The wikieducator page on nappy free babies sounds good. Anyone in many Eastern countries would laugh at such a thing as that's just what they do!
Sarah directed me to comments on her Ecomidwife site. I don't know she realises that they were my comments! Hee hee. Anna :)
Oh how funny, Anna. No, I didn't realize they were your comments :)
