Defining the relevant sustainability learning outcomes and how we could measure our success in teaching sustainability is a complex challenge. This paper introduces the design and findings of a pilot study on the effectiveness of a new Engineering graduate course, Total Sustainability Management, in teaching and learning sustainability, both at the cognitive and the management level. The design of the pre- and post-coursequestionnaires was driven by the course key objectives and adopted framework of sustainability competencies. The findings and questions raised from this pilot study inform the proposed design of further study and, more importantly, the development of a framework for teaching and learning – and thus measuring – sustainability in graduate, interdisciplinary Engineering education.

AbstractActive learning is a promising teaching approach that can develop sustainability competences in learners. In this paper, we investigate the potential of active-learning pedagogies such as serious games and active-learning toolkits to deliver sustainability knowledge and skills in materials education. We organised a workshop for 20 participants from UK Universities where they played the serious game In the Loop around critical materials and circular economy and engaged in the Active-Learning ToolKit Sustainable Development (Granta Design/now Ansys UK Ltd.) to assess the sustainability of a proposed policy intervention around the use of electric cars. We used a self-assessment questionnaire and reflection sessions to deduce the level of sustainability skill developed by the participants as well as importance and performance analysis (IPA) to help the educators understand crucial components they should concentrate their teaching and learning efforts on in the future. Finally, we provide recommendations for educators on how to implement active learning in materials education in order to empower students with skills for sustainability. Graphical abstract

Institutional Expectations

Learning outcomes are expected actions depicting the knowledge, skills, and dispositions (KSD) students can demonstrate at the end of a course or a unit of study relevant to the context of professional practice and institutional expectations. In professional graduate courses, learning outcomes cannot be limited to scores on classroom assessments only. It is defined by what students are taking away, during and at the end of the course, to inform professional practice. Candidates in professional programs should be provided the opportunity to self-identify and self-define learning outcomes that are relevant to their respective contexts of professional practice in the courses they take. This makes the assessment of learning outcomes a bit more challenging in professional programs and courses than non-professional programs. This is particularly so in an online course-delivery format for professional programs. This Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) study analyses and assesses specific self-identified learning outcomes by candidates in an online professional graduate course. The study categorizes and describes specific learning outcomes that candidates self-identified and suggest ways these can be used to improve the content, design, learning outcomes, and expectations in an online graduate-level professional program course. The need for further research in this area is emphasized.

The process and student learning outcomes in science learning material properties of light is a problem faced by class IV SD Negeri 3 Mengwi. Student activity and learning outcomes have not been maximized because the teacher delivered science learning materials using the lecture method. This is the background of the researchers to conduct research with the aim of improving the process and learning outcomes of science with material properties of light with learning models Contextual Teaching and Learning. This research is a type of classroom action research conducted in SD Negeri 3 Mengwi. The subjects of this study were fourth grade students, amounting to 27 students consisting of 14 female students and 13 male students. The implementation of this study used 2 cycles. Instruments used to collect data are observation sheets, interviews, documentation and test questions. The results of this study indicate that science learning outcomes with material properties of light using the Contextual Teaching and Learning model in SD Negeri 3 Mengwi have increased in two cycles with quite satisfactory values. There was an increase in learning outcomes from cycle 1 an average value of 68.51 to 75.37 in cycle 2. In addition, there was an increase in the learning process of students in science learning carried out by teachers using the Contextual Teaching and Learning model.
