Outline<br />
! Market Analysis - Designer’s Challenge<br />
! Tour of the site<br />
! Behind the scenes<br />
! GEMs as a tool for curriculum<br />
development<br />
! Where do we go from here?<br />
Observations<br />
! Laboratory experiments and other<br />
educational materials designed to illustrate<br />
green chemical principles are expanding<br />
but often difficult to find.<br />
! Dynamic tools are needed to enable<br />
educators, at all levels, to identify and<br />
adopt greener education materials into<br />
their curriculum.<br />
The Vision<br />
Comprehensive (Living) Resource<br />
! Facilitate identification, development and<br />
incorporation of materials into the curriculum<br />
! Choice leads to successful incorporation<br />
! Course planning tool<br />
Community Building<br />
! Opportunities for Collaboration<br />
! Mechanism for documenting and increasing the<br />
visibility of educational materials development
