设计和实施了一个为期三天的讲习班,目的是为高中教师提供所需的培训和资源,以便将绿色和可持续的化学融入他们的高中化学课堂。讲习班旨在介绍可持续发展和绿色化学的主题、以这些概念为模型的实验的动手实验室经验,以及参与者为制定纳入自己课堂的计划所需的个人工作时间。实验室研讨会的内容允许教师探索传统上危险的高中实验室的绿色替代实验,重点是满足下一代科学标准(NGSS)。作者开发的新型聚合物实验也作为实验进行,展示了可持续塑料的现代方法,以及科学家如何解决塑料在陆地和海洋中的积累问题。此外,聚合物实验提供了一种将工程原理纳入课程的机制。讲课和实验内容指出了课程计划和学习成果之间的联系,包括可持续性的支柱:(1)经济、(2)环境和(3)社会。这些讲习班在明尼苏达州实施,吸引了来自农村和城市学区的教师。所有参与者都获得了继续教育学分,并有权获得研究生学分。为期三年的暑期研讨会(2017、2018和2019年)的反馈显示,对研讨会的形式、内容和领导力几乎100%满意。
A three-day workshop was designed and implemented with the goals of providing the training and the resources needed for high school teachers to incorporate green and sustainable chemistry into their high school chemistry classrooms. The workshop was structured to introduce the topics of sustainability and green chemistry, hands-on laboratory experiences with experiments that modeled these concepts, and personal work time for participants to develop a plan for incorporation into their own classrooms. The laboratory workshop content allowed teachers to explore green replacement experiments for traditionally hazardous high school laboratories with an emphasis on meeting Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Novel polymer experiments, developed by the authors, were also performed as experiments illustrating modern approaches to sustainable plastics and how scientists are addressing the accumulation of plastics on land and in the ocean. Additionally, the polymer experiments offered a mechanism for inclusion of engineering principles into the curriculum. Lecture and laboratory content drew connections between the lesson plans and learning outcomes including the pillars of sustainability: (1) economic, (2) environmental, and (3) societal. These workshops were implemented in the state of Minnesota and attracted teachers from both rural and urban school districts. Continuing education credits were earned by all participants with the option to earn graduate credits. Feedback from three years of summer workshops (2017, 2018, and 2019) indicated nearly 100% satisfaction with the format, content, and leadership of the workshop.
