Abstract | How do we engage students outside their major discipline? Recent curriculum changes have led to increases in nonlaboratory science course offerings for nonmajors to not only bolster science literacy but also demonstrate the relevance and impact of science on their everyday lives. At Elon University, we deliberately designed the course, Culinary Transformations, to connect food and chemistry utilizing the overarching themes of a recipe and the scientific method. ACS anchoring concepts were linked to a series of experiential learning components, including hands-on activities and engagement with community partners. Analysis of final exam data indicates positive achievements in chemistry competencies. (As Provided). |
