ABSTRACT

A perspective on incorporating the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG) and Green Chemistry Principles (GCP) into high school chemistry curricula is presented. The framework is based upon the Johnstone-Mahaffy model for chemistry understanding which specifically links student learning to the affective or human-centred domain. Reference is made to the origins of high school chemistry curricula, recommendations from the recent Royal Society of Chemistry survey Green Shoots: A Sustainable Chemistry Curriculum for a Sustainable Planet, student engagement practices, and studies in adolescent mental health. The origins and organization of the UNSDG and GCP are outlined, with the similarities to high school chemistry curricula illustrated. Justification for the implementation of the UNSDG and GCP is given, with a specific example presented in the context of the International Baccalaureate chemistry curriculum, and the GCP are rendered in educator- and student-appropriate language.

摘要

提出了将联合国可持续发展目标 (UNSDG) 和绿色化学原则 (GCP) 纳入高中化学课程的观点。该框架基于 Johnstone-Mahaffy 化学理解模型，该模型专门将学生学习与情感或以人为中心的领域联系起来。参考了高中化学课程的起源，最近英国皇家化学学会调查绿芽：可持续地球的可持续化学课程的建议、学生参与实践以及青少年心理健康研究。概述了 UNSDG 和 GCP 的起源和组织，并说明了与高中化学课程的相似之处。给出了实施 UNSDG 和 GCP 的理由，并在国际文凭化学课程的背景下提供了一个具体示例，并且 GCP 以适合教育者和学生的语言呈现。
