Transformative teaching is practicing the teacher’s inner process  to reflect in the classroom the change you see needed in the world. From biology process, biomimicry “the small scale pattern that is mirrored in the macro pattern”. Transformative teaching is moving away from teachers burnout and students learnout (moving away from results that nobody seems to want, Otto Scharmer) by putting in the center co-sensing, co-learning and co-creating, we call it experience based learning approach. Burnout and learn out are the manifestation of climate change in the classroom: stuckness -feeling lack of meangfulness, mattering (Odell, 2023). 

We practice from Nature teaching (Listening and cultivating Attention)

 ” When we listen, the way we perceive reality changes exponentially, and then any transformative change becomes possible in matters of weeks” ( Otto Scharmer, MIT). 

 Nature is the best context- we did not listen in nature, we are listening now, it has our attention! Finland has been an educational system that kept nature close, they are too getting nature closer to the learning systems, as this is part of future skills mindset. Nature learning offers the amazing environment on how do we use efficiently our resources and energies, how do we move away from cluster thinking to systems thinking and make sure we do not deplete ourselves. 

What is sustainable curriculum? Students and teachers learn what is most meaningful  to them, making sense hence space to practice critical thinking, and holding the process instead of jumping to imediate results or focusing on results (creativity).

Wellbeing, transversal everyday agenda and practice as “the Science of Choosing Hapiness on purpose”-Greater Good Science Center University of California is part of sustainable curriculum.
