by redesigning our educational system, we can create opportunities for adaptive practice leading to more sustainable options. essentially my plan calls for a revision of the current educational system to increase the collective direction of our courses and creating opportunities for students to become more well-rounded, engaged, and adept at addressing the challenges that our world faces. this is the foundation for sustainability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
