Resumen de Promoting Student Awareness of Green Chemistry Principles via Student-Generated Presentation Videos
Krystal Grieger, Alexey Leontyev
This paper addresses the use of student-generated instructional videos to promote awareness of green chemistry principles during remote instruction. For this activity, we used Flipgrid as an asynchronous platform for students to create their videos based on assigned case studies from the Green Chemistry Challenge award winners. The Flipgrid platform was used to engage students in scientific discourse with their peers. The activity was viewed favorably by students with most indicating that they would like to see similar assignments implemented in future courses. This project increased student awareness of the 12 green chemistry principles. While this project was used in an Organic Chemistry II laboratory course with chemistry majors, it is our hope that other instructors who find the need to move their instruction online can use this activity either directly or with modifications to fit their course needs.
