What would be a good classroom exercise for a class on sustainability?

I’m teaching a three-week elective block course on sustainability soon, and I am looking for fun things the students can do as exercises following my slide lectures.
I’m especially keen on something to illustrate the C2C/ Cradle to Cradle Approach.
They are design students at undergrad level, aged between 20 and 50.

One that is very easy to do is what they are wearing. Textiles is a good illustration on all the type of materials used, how hard it is to recycle them, how consumer consumption impacts things (ask them how they would feel with one pair of jeans per year), how the styles make things harder to recycle, etc. Two groups to look at.

Where and how do I find/search for a Belly dancing teacher/class?

I live in the Houston, Texas area, and my doctor’s suggest Belly Dancing to help strengthen my mid-section and also work on my posture (my Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (http://www.ednf.com) causes my to inadvertently slouch). I can’t even begin to know where or how to find an instructor for this. How would I search the Yellow Pages? What kind of instructor should I look for? What kind of prices should I expect for these lessons? If not in the Yellow Pages, where else can I search for instruction in this art? I’m dying to learn it as it’s fascinated me for quite some time, and now for my doctor’s to tell me it’s perfect exercise for me I’m even more excited and chomping at the bit to get started! I appreciate any help anyone can offer.

You can start checking with your local recreation center to see if they have classes.

Prices of lessons may vary quite a bit, depending on your location, private or group lessons, experience of the instructor, etc.

You can e-mail or call some of the dance instructors to find out more about their background, their style of instruction and what they expect from students. Sometimes you can contact a teacher that is further away than you might want to travel and ask if they know of an instructor who may live closer to you.

I hope you find a teacher that you like. If one teacher’s style doesn’t suit your learning style, try another. I’ve known some dancers to take awhile finding a setting that worked for them. Good luck.

Most company’s fall for the old trick of using buzz word from their own blurb, don’t over do it, but make use of it..
