Dear CSF101 participants

These instructions are for: Saturday 6 to Tuesday 9 August 2016.
If you have just joined us, you will find copies of the instructions for the introductory Session on the course site.
Recap
We hope that you found the instructions useful for setting up your learning journal.
By now you should :

- Completed the optional new OERu participant survey.
This session: Sustainability is entirely possible
The challenge of ‘sustainability’ and ‘sustainable development’ have been described by many as the most pressing challenge our species has ever faced. With over 7 billion people now living on our planet, the need to find a viable way for humans to prosper peacefully within ecological constraints is more important than ever.
- Work through the learning materials.
- Complete the activities.
Need help?
Post your questions using WENotes or the General CSF101 forum. Remember to include the url of the page where you are having problems.
Let's leverage the power of peer-learning by helping each other. If you know the answer to a question, help a friend by responding. Bear in mind that as an international course, your facilitators may be in a different time zone and could be sleeping when you post a question.
Most of all have fun!
Your facilitators
Steve, Simon and Alexa
