Greener Curriculum Showcase Series: Green Chemistry and Sustainability Case Studies in the Classroom
2025-10-23 13:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York) | Virtual
This free, virtual workshop is designed to support educators in effectively adapting and implementing case studies based on soy chemistry. It also guides educators in developing their own case studies using a newly created template and instructional guide co-developed by Beyond Benign and the American Chemical Society Green Chemistry Institute (ACS GCI). Integrating case studies into the curriculum is an effective way to provide context for chemical concepts and highlight real-world green chemistry applications and sustainable innovations for students.
The soy chemistry case studies are part of a new curriculum launched this fall. These studies explore the industrial applications of soybeans as a renewable resource, demonstrating how green chemistry principles and sustainable innovation can replace petroleum-based products such as transformer oils, solvents, and wood adhesives. Each case study is designed to engage students with real-life contexts while reinforcing key chemistry concepts commonly taught in the classroom.
The case study templates help educators seamlessly incorporate real-world chemistry examples into their teaching, with an emphasis on sustainability and systems thinking. Each template includes a comprehensive workbook and user guide to support instructors through the process of developing and implementing case studies effectively.
This resource is ideal for educators seeking to enrich their curriculum with practical, sustainability-focused content aligned with the ACS Guidelines for Bachelor’s Degree Programs. Workshop participants will gain hands-on experience with the case study framework and learn strategies for using and creating case studies that highlight the critical role of chemistry in sustainable innovation—fostering a deeper understanding of the design of greener chemical products and processes, and equipping students to contribute to a more sustainable future.
During the 2-hour session, facilitators will guide participants through the resources, offer practical strategies for adaptation and implementation, and create opportunities for educators to share insights. The workshop will feature group-based learning, discussions, networking opportunities, and a Q&A session. Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your teaching toolkit, engage with peers, and inspire the next generation of green chemists!

The goals for the workshop include:

Educate participants on the use of case studies as effective teaching tools in the classroom.
Guide participants through practical approaches for adapting and creating case studies for their curriculum.
Empower participants to implement case study resources and expand their professional network.

We hope you’ll join us! There are limited seats available for this workshop, so registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. Please register in advance below so we can reserve a spot for you. We’ll send the Zoom link and more details closer to the event date.
