SUMMARY:2nd Annual ACS Sustainability Summit: Reimagining Chemistry Education (Hybrid Event)
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS campaign for a Sustainable Future\, ACS Green Chemistry Institute\, ACS Division of Chemical Education\, and Beyond Benign (Green Chemistry Education)\nIn-person at ACS Headquarters\, Washington\, D.C. ($200) & Virtual (Free) | View agenda\nLearn more and register now\n\nAttend & learn how chemists are advancing green chemistry & sustainability in undergraduate & graduate education. \nThe ACS campaign for a Sustainable Future and the Green Chemistry Institute\, together with the ACS Division of Education and Beyond Benign Green Chemistry Education\, invite you to attend the 2nd Annual ACS Sustainability Summit: Reimagining Chemistry Education. This summit will bring together educators and thought leaders from across the spectrum of stakeholders working to advance green chemistry and sustainability in undergraduate and graduate education as well as training for those already in the workforce. \nThe summit will consist of discussions among panelists and participants attending both in person and online. The focus will be on facilitating critical connections between academia and industry to catalyze the propagation of green chemistry and sustainability concepts throughout curricula while expanding educational opportunities for both students and professionals. We will also highlight urgent requirements for accessible training that can provide every chemist and engineer with opportunities to cultivate valuable skillsets that empower them to make significant contributions toward achieving the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals. \n\n\n\nCentral Themes\n\nChallenges and opportunities relevant to the current state of secondary/tertiary teaching of chemistry in the U.S. and internationally.\nMaking and strengthening connections between concerned stakeholders\, with educators as the pivot point: Education/Industry\, Education/NGOs\, Education/Funding and Policy\, Education/Community Engagement\, and Education/Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion and Respect (DEIR).\nIdentifying training needs for chemists and engineers to complement those offered at educational institutions.\nMeasuring impact and using that to drive new educational initiatives and future opportunities for chemists and engineers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttendees Will\n\nGain insight into the value and necessity for reimagining chemistry education.\nDevelop strategies for reimagining chemistry education that include perspectives from multiple stakeholders from across the chemistry enterprise.\nLearn about opportunities to adopt existing curricular materials and/or contribute to developing new materials that empower chemists and engineers to contribute to UN Sustainable Development Goals.\nIn person attendees will network\, connect\, and build bridges between education and industry.
