Faculty or University Instructors

By the end of the session, you will have:

• Seen a variety of demonstrations relevant to teaching students aged 11–18
• Explored the benefits of microscale and how it can be used to enhance learning, while also promoting environmentally sustainable practices
• Considered ways to embed microscale in your own teaching practice.

There is a question and answer session; the event is being recorded.

Kick off the school year with a hands-on experiment that brings real-world relevance to core chemistry concepts. Join Vernier chemistry experts Dr. Melissa Hill and Nüs Hisim as they demonstrate a green chemistry investigation that uses the Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus to analyze food dye concentrations in popular sports drinks. This student-led experiment introduces spectroscopy as a tool for exploring molecular structure and function—and connects absorbance, transmittance, and concentration through Beer’s law in a food chemistry context.

The 13th ISMC will be a conference for school teachers of chemistry, school science technicians, academics, and educational professionals from the UK and overseas with the aim of promoting Microscale and Small-Scale Techniques (MaSSTs) in chemistry education.

Join us for the 2026 BCCE on July 26-30, 2026!
The 29th BCCE will be held on the lakeside campus of the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the Summer of 2026. The conference, like all of its predecessors, provides the chemistry education community with opportunities to interact and engage. The conference will be a mixture of symposia, workshops, poster sessions, exhibits, and spaces for both formal and informal conversations.

About AOAC SEA

The aim of AOAC SEA is to bring together government, industry, and academia to establish standard methods of analysis. This ensures the safety and integrity of foods and other products that impact public health around the world. The vision is to be a contributor in developing confidence through consensus-based analytical solutions for food safety, food integrity, and public health across Southeast Asia countries.

Past and Upcoming Conferences

Previous annual conferences were held in Singapore (2022), Vietnam (2023), and the Philippines (2024), each enabling over 200 delegates to attend in person. The 4th Annual AOAC SEA Conference, with the theme "Advancing Food Safety and Quality: Innovation, Standards, and Collaboration," will be held at the Berkeley Hotel Pratunam in Bangkok, Thailand, on 28–29 October 2025.

"A meeting point to promote sustainable, environmentally respectful approaches in science and technology."

The event aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue among academia, industry, and the public sector, with a focus on Education, Innovation, and Biomimicry as key drivers for sustainable transformation.

Thematic Pillars:

Green Education- Training sustainability-minded scientists with novel teaching methods and tools.

Sustainable Innovation- Green chemistry real-world applications in industry and product development.

Biomimicry & Nature-Based Businesses- Efficient, safe, and beautiful solutions inspired by nature positively impacting business.

Fluctuations in political, economic, and R&D cycles may introduce uncertainty and necessitate the reallocation of resources, which can affect the adoption of sustainable chemistry and greener processes. Such disruptions have the potential to compromise long-term business resilience, elevate risk levels, and adversely impact both human health and the environment. Continuing to advance sustainable chemistry in a changing environment requires continued policy, investment, and market commitments.

To ensure sustainable chemistry remains a priority, demonstrating and communicating its positive impact on all business functions and through the value chain is critical. During this webinar series, subject matter experts will share tools and insights to assist champions with effectively "making the case". Structured as a series of discussions, attendees will have the unique opportunity to pre-competitively engage with the speakers and other companies facing similar challenges.

During the first 3 webinars, experts shared the benefits of sustainable chemistry for investors, on domestic manufacturing, and business health. This webinar builds on these conversations by highlighting the need for education - both in academia and for workforce development - in order to build a workforce with sustainable chemistry knowledge and skill sets. Juan Colberg from Pfizer will discuss the business benefits of a sustainability minded workforce and needs to attract this talent. Amy Cannon from Beyond Benign will share how our community can support students and educators in training the next generation for success.

*This webinar is available to Change Chemistry members only.

The need to equip students with the tools to connect core chemistry concepts to real-world sustainability challenges has never been more urgent. That’s why green chemistry and systems thinking are now required components of ACS-approved bachelor’s degree programs.

To support this transformative shift, the ACS Green Chemistry Institute is collaborating with a national network of educators to develop powerful new teaching resources. Join David A. Laviska of the ACS Green Chemistry Institute, Michelle Brooks of the American Chemical Society, and Loyd Bastin of Widener University as they provide you an extensive library of resources ACS offers to modernize your curricula and show you how to bring green chemistry to life in your classrooms.

This ACS Webinar is co-produced with the ACS Green Chemistry Institute.

What You Will Learn

• How chemistry curricula are evolving to empower students to tackle global challenges
• Brand-new ACS green chemistry resources created specifically for educators
• Practical, first-hand strategies to implement curriculum changes that truly resonate with students
