Sourcebook 1: Innovative teaching methods and approaches in higher education on

sustainable and smart cities

This sourcebook focuses on innovative teaching methods and approaches suitable for university subjects related to sustainable and smart cities. A significant emphasis is placed on challenge-based learning (CBL), which differentiates from the traditional problem-based learning (PBL) in various aspects. The sourcebook provides a foundational understanding of PBL and guidance on crafting case studies, as CBL, a newer trend in higher education, can be framed within the PBL context and often illustrated using case studies.

Sourcebook 2: EU Climate and Smart City Missions: Universities Bridging Research and Education This   sourcebook   is   dedicated   to   understanding   the   mission   goals   within   the   climate-neutral   and   smart   cities context   in   the   research   area   of   European   universities.   It   provides   frameworks   for   building   university   capacity   and fostering   collaboration   with   external   stakeholders.   The   transdisciplinary   collaborative   framework   was   inspired   by opportunities brought through European grants.

Sourcebook 3: Innovative methodologies and digital tools for online education in the field of smart and sustainable cities This    sourcebook    covered    state-of-the-art    teaching    and    learning    techniques    for    the    future    generation    of knowledge   workers   in   the   field   of   smart   and   sustainable   cities.   It   emphasized   public   engagement   by   universities in   addressing   societal   challenges,   requiring   teaching   formats   that   provide   students   with   necessary   skills   for interdisciplinary collaboration. Part   I:   Focused   on   identifying   educational   methodologies   and   tools   for   regular   classes   and   innovative   e-learning courses relevant to smart and sustainable cities. Part   II:   Provided   concrete   examples   of   how   these   methodologies   and   tools   can   be   adopted   by   courses   at   both universities, enhancing student learning outcomes.

Sourcebook 4: Integrating Climate Change in Higher Education Curricula and Fostering Synergy with Research Activities This   sourcebook   aimed   to   help   lecturers   incorporate   aspects   of   climate   change   into   higher   education   curricula   in the   context   of   sustainable   and   smart   cities.   It   also   emphasized   the   synergy   between   education   and   research activities. Part   1:   Addressed   the   integration   of   climate   change   aspects   into   academic   curricula,   using   courses   from   both CTU and UiS as examples. Part   2:   Highlighted   the   importance   of   synergy   between   education,   research,   and   innovation   across   disciplines   in addressing societal challenges.
