Faculty or University Instructors

The Green Chemistry Commitment (GCC) is a framework to unite the Green Chemistry higher education community around a common vision to:

• Expand the community of green chemists;
• Grow departmental resources;
• Improve connections to job opportunities;
• Affect systemic and lasting change in chemistry education.

Join us for an information session, where you can learn more about the GCC’s benefits and outcomes of becoming a GCC Signer. We’ll also be sharing our latest initiatives for the higher education community including more information on this platform, the Green Chemistry Teaching & Learning Community (GCTLC) Online Platform, and our Minority Serving Institutions (MSI) Initiative.

When your institution becomes a GCC signer, you will gain:

• Access to a broad and supportive community of chemistry experts;
• A flexible framework for green chemistry curriculum and training;
• A benchmark to track progress on learning and research objectives;
• A network dedicated to shifting how and what the next generation of chemists learn;
• Access to funding opportunities and projects.
•  

The GCC is a departmental commitment, so please consider inviting your colleagues or department chair to this event.

Since the release of the Statewide Strategic Plan for Science, we have made enormous strides implementing best practices shifting towards sensemaking. The materials, lessons, activities, storylines, performance tasks (matter) we have collected and developed over time, through professional learning/sharing, and networking (energy) has transformed our pedagogy.

More general information about the conference is forthcoming. Visit the STANYS official site for registration and updates.

Time and Date TBD

Are you teaching science and looking to create a safer, more engaging learning environment for your students? Learn how to weave NYSP12SLS suitability content into your classrooms. Participants will learn about the 12 green chemistry principles, as they immerse in hands on activities/labs, which will guide them into safer practices in the lab and classroom. Participants will be introduced to the Green Chemistry Teaching and Learning Community (GCTLC) and the book: Green Chemistry And Sustainable Science – A Green Approach to Sustainable STEM authored by Beyond Benign’s New York Lead Teachers.
