Innovative Green Teaching: a Primer of Innovative Teaching Techniques of Environmental and Energy Topics

Abstract

This primer is intended to assist teaching faculty at institutions of higher education with the integration of new teaching techniques in their classrooms. The primer offers a list of possible approaches and provides some useful links, which can serve as inspiration and a starting point. After providing a general overview of interactive teaching techniques, we adapt our examples to the field of teaching environmental and energy topics. While this primer should be useful for teaching a wide range of undergraduate and graduate classes, it has a particular focus on environmental and resource economics, energy policy and economics, entrepreneurship, sustainable business and management.
