Teacher Guide for Working with Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)
The purpose of this teacher guide is to inspire teachers who want to work with climate change and sustainable development with their students. In this guide, you will find examples of teaching activities and teacher reflections on these activities. The activities described should be seen as inspiration. They could be adjusted according to a specific teaching context as preferred, thus aligned with the same objectives and perceived outcomes. The EU-project in which the activities were developed, was carried out with upper secondary students (aged 16-19). With smaller changes by the teachers, younger students can also work with the suggested activities. Beyond the goal of learning about climate change and sustainable development, the activities enable students to practice their critical thinking, and develop their communication and presentation skills.

Cognitive load theory: Research that teachers really need to understand
To improve student performance, teachers need to understand the evidence base that informs and helps improve their practice. An area of research with significant implications for teaching practice is cognitive load theory.
This paper describes the research on cognitive load theory and what it means for more effective teaching practice. The first part of the paper explains how human brains learn according to cognitive load theory, and outlines the evidence base for the theory. The second part of the paper examines the implications of cognitive load theory for teaching practice, and describes some recommendations that are directly transferable to the classroom.
