Abstract

This work describes an alternative educational approach for the teaching of general chemistry at the college level. The curriculum is focused on the development of chemical ways of thinking that are useful for solving problems in social and environmental contexts. In particular, the educational goals are directed at preparing students who can identify the types of questions that chemistry helps us answer, the intellectual and experimental resources that are available to face such challenges, and the costs and benefits of using chemistry to solve our problems.
