Students will experience field-based learning and explore case studies as they engage with challenges at various scales, from global issues through to local impacts. Understanding of the often complex nature of environmental challenges, as well as the diverse approaches regarding utilisation of the natural environment, will be built through an emphasis on systems thinking. This unit addresses various Threshold Learning Outcomes (TLO) for environment and sustainability endorsed by the Australian Council of Environmental Deans and Directors (ACEDD).]]> 2021-07-14 22:55:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolebeard1/chf2i87z5gulmbdt/wish/1649932459 ULO 1 nicolebeard1 https://padlet.com/nicolebeard1/chf2i87z5gulmbdt/wish/1649933059 2021-07-14 22:56:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolebeard1/chf2i87z5gulmbdt/wish/1649933059 ULO 2 nicolebeard1 https://padlet.com/nicolebeard1/chf2i87z5gulmbdt/wish/1649933386 Describe disciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to identifying and conceptualising environmental and sustainability challenges (ACEDD TLO 2.1);
