Commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Indigenization in Chemistry
As with our previous OER, Enhanced Introductory College Chemistry [New tab] Chapters 1-18, our commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion and indigenization is forefront and continued. In compiling this resource, the contributors have made conscious efforts to include examples of diversity of organic chemistry applications and scholars.
Please refer to our page Commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Indigenization in Chemistry – Enhanced Introductory College Chemistry [New tab] for more information and suggestion to support equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging as well as indigenization in chemistry classrooms.
