Handbook of Theory and Practice of Sustainable Development in Higher Education : Volume 3

"This Handbook approaches sustainable development in higher education from an integrated perspective, addressing the dearth of publications on the subject. It offers a unique overview of what universities around the world are doing to implement sustainable development (i.e. via curriculum innovation, research, activities, or practical projects) and how their efforts relate to education for sustainable development at the university level. The Handbook gathers a wealth of information, ideas, best practices and lessons learned in the context of executing concrete projects, and assesses methodological approaches to integrating the topic of sustainable development in university curricula. Lastly, it documents and disseminates the veritable treasure trove of practical experience currently available on sustainability in higher education."--Publisher's description Front Matter....Pages i-ix Front Matter....Pages 1-1 Designing Sustainable Consumption and Production Systems in Higher Education Institutions: The Case of Solid Waste Management....Pages 3-25 Sustainable Campus Management at Freie Universität Berlin—Governance and Participation Matter....Pages 27-45 Education for Sustainability: A Wisdom Model....Pages 47-58 ecoGIS—A Solution for Interactive Facility Management to Support the European Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS)....Pages 59-72 A Real-World Lab Approach to the Carbon Neutral Campus Transition: A Case Study....Pages 73-88 Sustainable Academic Libraries: A Campus Partnership at Michigan State University....Pages 89-100 Becoming Sustainable in Our Own Way: Sustainability at the Flagship Massachusetts Public University....Pages 101-114 Identifying Relevant Versus Received Sustainability Education at Industrial Engineering and Management Programs....Pages 115-131 Implementing Sustainability in the Classroom at Université Laval....Pages 133-147 Environmental Dashboards: Fostering Pro-environmental and Pro-community Thought and Action Through Feedback....Pages 149-168 The Implementation of Sustainable Development in the Nordic Higher Education Institutions (HEIs)....Pages 169-187 Front Matter....Pages 189-189 Energy Consumption in Student Hostels of Universiti Sains Malaysia: Energy Audit and Energy Efficiency Awareness....Pages 191-207 Resilience Thinking in Higher Education: Institutional Resilience as a Sustainability Goal....Pages 209-222 The Campus as a Living Laboratory: Macalester College Case Study....Pages 223-239 Sustainable Energy Campus: A Challenge on Smart Facilities and Operations....Pages 241-255 Unipoli Green—Four Universities Working Together for Sustainability....Pages 257-273 Prerequisites for the Sustainability of Municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul—Brazil: A Project to Foster Sustainable Development....Pages 275-290 A Decade of Earth in the Mix: A Bibliometric Analysis of Emergent Scholarly Research on Sustainability Education and Ecopsychology in Higher Education....Pages 291-306 Creating a Sustainable Campus from the Ground up....Pages 307-327 Sustainability Champions: Role Models in Sustainability Graduate Education....Pages 329-342 Front Matter....Pages 189-189 Renewable Distributed Generation and Its Stakeholders’ Engagement Contributing to Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation in Brazil Unisul—Universidade Do Sul de Santa Catarina, Brazil....Pages 343-354 A Holistic View for Integrating Sustainability Education for the Built Environment Professions in Indonesia....Pages 355-376 The Sustainability Journey of USM: Solution Oriented Campus Ecosphere for Vitalising Higher Education Action on GAP....Pages 377-390 Working for Sustainability Transformation in an Academic Environment: The Case of itdUPM....Pages 391-408
