Calling all K-12 teachers! Create safer, more engaging learning environments by integrating green chemistry and sustainable science principles into your classroom. Join your peers at our monthly professional development series: Observe, Wonder, Think: A Green Chemistry Interactive Webinar Series to learn how! Following NGSS best practice techniques, this webinar series will support K-12 educators to foster “observe, wonder, think” with their students using hands-on green chemistry labs and highlighting real-world green chemistry technologies.
This year, we will be highlighting the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry! Each time we meet, we will focus on a selection of principles, which we will bring those to life with a short, interactive classroom activity and presentations from education speakers demonstrating how they incorporate those principles into their classroom activities and labs.
We encourage you to invite your colleagues and friends to join these virtual discussions. We will provide a certification of participation at the end of every meeting, for use towards PD hours for those of you who can use them for that. This dedicated monthly time is designed to bring the green chemistry community together to advance the field and share ideas and resources for inspiring students through green chemistry!
Check the list below for more information on monthly sessions, which will be updated throughout the year.
