        5.1 Overview & Expected Outcomes

        • Welcome to the final module! Module 5 is dedicated to Systems Thinking Competency (STC)—the ability to recognize and understand relationships and analyze complex systems.

          Expected Outcome: By the end of this module, you will be able to apply and teach Multi-Level Analysis (MLA) to deconstruct complex sustainability issues across micro, meso, and macro levels.

          📌 Important Note on ESDC Pedagogy:

          ESDCs do not always dictate completely new pedagogies. Many of your existing teaching and learning activities can be adapted by aligning them to the STC CLO.

          • Develop: Choose a sustainability topic relevant to your specific discipline and develop a brief Multi-Level Analysis (MLA) mapping it across micro (individual), meso (institutional), and macro (societal/global) levels.

          • Post: Share your MLA breakdown in the Module 5 Discussion Forum.

          • Peer Review: Review the MLAs submitted by your peers. Reply to at least two other enrollees, offering insights, questions, or constructive feedback on their system analysis.
