Three ways to develop skills for the fight against climate change

Abstract

"Like many CEGEP teachers, you may be concerned about the urgency of climate change. Well, this concern is shared by a large portion of the student population. At the college level, where civic awareness is forged, addressing the fight against climate change (FCC) can have a significant impact on civic engagement, the ability of students to protect themselves from the health impacts of climate change, and the acquisition of professional competencies. Because teaching about climate change is relatively new, this article explores three possible approaches to developing FCC competencies at the college level. It also suggests ways to overcome the main barriers that teaching staff face." -- AQPC
