WEBINAR (1 hour) recorded November 10, 2020


In a time that demands flexible thinking, there is an opportunity to bridge science and art in new ways. Eric Nash is an artist, green chemistry leader, and high school teacher who brings his drawing into the classroom through creating coloring books, DIY paper models, and hands-on green chemistry labs. While transitioning to 100% virtual teaching, Eric utilizes COVID examples and critical thinking challenges to promote student collaboration and exploration. Eric will share ready-to-use direct-to-student videos, lesson plans, and print out models for online learning. Listen to him share his solutions to teaching chemistry virtually, and how art plays a role in communication complex concepts.
