The safer chemical design game. Gamification of green chemistry and safer chemical design concepts for high school and undergraduate students
Contributors
Summary
A green chemistry educational game was developed by the authors to engage undergraduate and advanced high school students in sustainability concerns while designing a hypothetical chemical product. This free game is suitable for any chemistry course that covers sustainability and the Principles of Green Chemistry, encouraging students to think like professional chemical designers. The computer simulation has been evaluated by educators and can be seamlessly integrated into existing curricula, promoting improved human and environmental health in chemical product design.
