A high school green chemistry and engineering curriculum was designed and taught for the first time this past summer at the Science Collaborative Hands-On Learning and Research (SCHOLAR) program in New Haven, CT. SCHOLAR is a partnership that was formed over a decade ago between Yale University and New Haven’s Hill Regional Career High School. As part of this program, where the mission is to stimulate students’ interest in science and to encourage college attendance, high school students live and learn on the Yale campus for three weeks during the summer. Program coordinators sought to introduce a new science course in 2009, and as a result, I was given the opportunity to join the program faculty as a green chemistry and engineering teacher. A green chemistry and engineering curriculum was designed for rising sophomores who had yet to take high school chemistry. This curriculum included basic chemistry terminology and concepts, green chemistry and green engineering principles, risk, biomimicry, and case studies on EPA Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award winning technologies. This presentation will include lessons learned, challenges encountered, and successes achieved during this green chemistry and engineering teaching experience. In addition, I hope to gain feedback and suggestions to improve the course for next year.
