Abstract
Global climate change, exacerbated by anthropogenic effects, is well documented and has serious implications for the future of the planet. Educating university students in sustainability practices through cooperative learning labs can increase the wealth of their educational experience and potentially plant the seeds of sustainable practices in the next generation. We designed a cooperative learning lab that split a class into six small groups, each of which were assigned a project to be completed over a two-week period. The group projects are listed in the center table of this poster. Our primary objectives were for the group projects to result in an increased understanding of the facts of global climate change, public perceptions, local sustainability practices, and to facilitate cooperative working and presentation skills in our students.
