Release of LCA Modules
We are excited to announce that the first modules in the Environmental Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Learning Module Series are now available on the CESTiCC website. The modules are in PowerPoint format with narration and will automatically play the audio and advance slides when put in presentation mode. Each module is approximately 20 minutes long.
The modules will be uploaded as they are developed or updated. They are intended to be used for personal education, short background workshops or as components for more detailed classes. The following is a listing of the groups that the different modules will be placed in. As can be seen by the listing some of the modules are for more general knowledge (overview modules), while some are more detailed.
Group A: ISO Compliant LCA Overview Modules
Group α: ISO Compliant LCA Detailed Modules
Group B: Environmental Impact Categories Overview Modules
Group β: Environmental Impact Categories Detailed Modules
Group G: General LCA Tools Overview Modules
Group γ: General LCA Tools Detailed Modules
Group T: Transportation-Related LCA Overview Modules
Group τ: Transportation-Related LCA Detailed Modules
Overview modules contain a self-assessment quiz at the end of the presentation that you can optionally take at your own pace by forwarding the slides. Correct answers are provided. Detailed modules provide a few suggestions for homework or further study at the end of the slideshow.
The authors are grateful for support from CESTiCC, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State University, and Fulbright. Please visit the website to see what is available.
