This course will interactively engage students cognitively and scientifically in issues related to sustainable agriculture and food systems. Students will define concepts, perform investigations via case studies, self reflection, and independent projects and verbally discuss the results and relationships with peers and facilitators. Lecture sessions employ a mixture of lectures and active learning (self and peer discussions). The outcomes shall be assessed through a variety of tools which include the traditional paper examination, informal interviews and classroom engagement.
