Applied Chemistry in STEM 《STEM中的应用化学》
Drawing on real-world industry experiences to find inspiration is crucial to helping you as an educator develop authentic lessons that will apply scientific principals and teach rigorous academic concepts while also modelling authentic lab-skills at the same time. Therefore, this presentation will aim to demonstrate and model how chemistry can be used to solve a variety of real-world problems, and will use that knowledge to distill, design, and implement a number of cross-curricular labs that will apply chemistry into a variety of commercial contexts.
作为一名教育工作者，从现实世界的行业经验中汲取灵感，对于帮助您开发真实的课程至关重要，这些课程将应用科学原理，教授严谨的学术概念，同时还能模拟真实的实验技能。因此，本讲座旨在展示和示范如何利用化学解决各种现实问题，并将利用这些知识提炼、设计和实施一系列跨学科实验，将化学应用到各种商业环境中。
As such, I will explain and model a number of different concepts to design a number of cross-curricular science labs based on my experiences in the corporate sector. Furthermore, each example has been structured in a way that would be appropriate for high-school students to learn based on their exposure to chemistry in most standardized curriculums. Moreover, all of the provided examples will also provide a number of cross-curricular extensions which will help students visualize and understand the importance of what they are learning.
因此，我将根据自己在企业界的经验，解释和模拟一些不同的概念，设计一些跨学科的科学实验。此外，每个示例的结构都适合高中学生根据他们在大多数标准化课程中接触化学的情况来学习。此外，所有提供的示例还将提供一些跨学科的延伸，帮助学生直观地理解所学知识的重要性。
Therefore, throughout this presentation we will explore numerous ways to design and model a number of cross-curricular labs that will apply chemistry in an authentic way while also exposing students to relevant career paths. Enter the world of cosmetics… or the world of aerospace engineering as you use the scientific method to create and test solid-cell rocket fuels. What about entering corporate water analysis and learning about what health & safety auditors do? Even commercial photography applies numerous scientific principals from chemistry, math and physics. And finally, e-waste recycling which is a topic that has a lot of sociological, environmental, and ethical factors that can, and should be investigated in conjunction to the lab itself will be explored… And this final example upholds the very recommendations that were made by the World Economic Forum as they call for reform in STEM education “to ensure that students learn to evaluate and respond to the social, economic, and political consequences of their work” (Marker, 2018).
因此，在本讲座中，我们将探讨设计和模拟跨学科实验的多种方法，以真实的方式应用化学，同时让学生了解相关的职业道路。进入化妆品世界……或航空航天工程世界，用科学方法制造和测试固体火箭燃料。进入企业水分析领域，了解健康与安全审计员的工作又如何？即使是商业摄影，也会应用到化学、数学和物理学中的许多科学原理。最后，我们还将探讨电子垃圾回收问题，这是一个涉及社会学、环境和道德因素的课题，可以而且应该结合实验室本身进行调查……最后这个例子与世界经济论坛提出的建议不谋而合，他们呼吁改革 STEM 教育，”以确保学生学会评估和应对其工作的社会、经济和政治后果”（Marker，2018 年）。
