Higher education educators across Europe will soon have the opportunity to participate in a new phase of the PROFFORMANCE Course Upgrade online peer learning activity, dedicated to integrating sustainability principles into course design and teaching practice.
This new phase focuses on sustainability-oriented teaching approaches that help students better understand complex global challenges while strengthening critical thinking, active participation, and responsible decision-making. Participants will work directly on their own courses through practical tasks, expert guidance, and international peer exchange with colleagues from across Europe.
A key strength of the module is its approach to sustainability as an integral part of everyday teaching practice rather than a standalone topic. Educators are encouraged to explore how sustainability principles can enhance the quality, inclusiveness, and accessibility of learning across different disciplines and institutional contexts.
The activity remains flexible and modular, allowing educators to join at any stage and engage according to their own interests, priorities, and available time.
