Integrating the UN Sustainable Development Goals into a lesson plan

Dr. Tammy d’Artenay introduces SUST.150N course integrating UN Sustainable Development Goals into a general education requirement. The online course merges natural and social sciences addressing the 17 SDGs and their associated problems weekly. Students engage with Essential Environment textbook and connect learned science with analyzed SDG issues to propose solutions. Participation in online discussions emphasizes integration. Identified difficulty lies in students applying prior knowledge rather than new class concepts, requiring early recognition and clear, objective-driven activity prompts and assessment rubrics.
