SUMMARY:Sustainable Momentum: Building Connections from Lab to Life\, hosted by NOBCChE
DESCRIPTION:Official Event Description\nIt is our pleasure to invite you to attend NOBCChE’s 51st Annual Meeting\, September 30-October 3\, 2024 at the Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando\, Florida. Each year\, the Annual Conference provides opportunities for networking and mentorship between students of all levels and professionals. In addition\, the conference creates a venue for scientific dialogue through technical programming\, as well as personal and professional development for students and early/mid-career professionals. Some of our signature events include the Winifred Burks-Houck Luncheon\, the Percy Julian Luncheon\, and the NOBCChE Awards Ceremony! \n\nGreen and Sustainable Chemistry for the Improvement of Life- Supporting the Incorporation of Green Chemistry in the Undergraduate Curriculum\nBy Dr. Deborah Bromfield-Lee and Dr. Monica Nyansa\nOctober 1st\, 2024 | Gatlin E5\, Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel\, Orlando FL \nBeyond Benign\, a global nonprofit\, recognized for its advocacy in green chemistry education\, champions the integration of green chemistry and sustainable practices into chemistry curricula through collaborative development and dissemination of resources through its flagship programs\, the Green Chemistry Commitment (GCC) and the newly launched online Green Chemistry Teaching and Learning Community (GCTLC) platform. Both the GCC and GCTLC aim to empower educators to cultivate a generation of scientists adept at addressing global challenges\, including those from underrepresented communities\, through sustainable chemistry practices. The goal of this session is to empower professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to integrate green chemistry and sustainability principles into their chemistry curriculum\, aligning with the 2023 American Chemical Society’s (ACS) Guidelines for Bachelor’s Degree Program\, which state as a critical requirement that\, to maintain or obtain ACS approval\, the curriculum must provide students with a working knowledge of the Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry. Furthermore\, this session serves as a call to action for professionals to become agents of change in training scientists from underrepresented communities and invites them into the creation process. During the session\, attendees will gain insights into practical approaches for integrating green chemistry into undergraduate chemistry programs. The discussion will also address common barriers to implementation and highlight available resources from Beyond Benign to support educators on their green chemistry and sustainability journey\, including the newly launched online Green Chemistry Teaching and Learning Community (GCTLC) platform. \nThis session is intended for young professionals\, Mid-Career professionals\, Distinguished professionals and senior graduate students.

SUMMARY:Increasing Student Engagement by Connecting Chemistry and Invention
DESCRIPTION:What does it look like for students in the classroom (virtually and in-person) when chemistry concepts are introduced through the lens of invention education? \nBy aligning chemistry with inventive thinking there is a considerable opportunity to establish a pipeline of creative inventors to design technology with chemistry to improve human health and the environment. Learn how the ChemAttitudes Framework and the Invention Education Framework align to provide structure for demystifying chemistry\, increasing interest\, providing real-world context and boosting the feelings of self-efficacy of chemistry. \nThe student experiences and work highlighted draws from the NSF funded ChemAttitudes project developed by the team of Museum of Science\, Boston\, the National Informal STEM Education Network and the American Chemical Society to create curriculum and best practice instructional tools to stimulate interest\, a sense of relevance and feelings of self-efficacy about chemistry among public audiences. This work is also coupled by the Lemelson Foundation’s Invention Education Framework that details key criteria to foster key inventive mindset characteristics within students as well. \nJoin Sustainable Invention Amabassador Loren Kristick and hear from her students about their experience.
