Abstract | A strategy for incorporating social justice themes into an introductory organic chemistry curriculum is described. We have deliberately infused social justice themes into the standard organic chemistry curriculum by discussing the history and social impact of key compounds. Using these key compounds that have had significant social, cultural, and environmental impacts, students practiced arrow-pushing mechanisms, predicted products, and identified pK[subscript a] values and functional groups. We believe this approach helps make the material more relevant to students, keep students engaged, and emphasize the real-world applications of the concepts and compounds that they are learning about. Details on the implementation and the evaluation of this work are discussed. (As Provided). |
