The Methodology Of Forming Environmental Safety Principles In The Process Of Teaching Organic Chemistry
Keywords:
Organic chemistry, environmental safety, plastics, petroleum derivatives, synthetic substances, ecological awareness, sustainable development, eco-education, interdisciplinary approach, student competence.Abstract
This article analyzes the issues of forming environmental safety principles in the process of teaching organic chemistry. The main focus is placed on developing students’ responsible attitude toward the environment and shaping ecological awareness by teaching the negative impact of organic substances (plastics, petroleum derivatives, synthetic compounds) on human health and nature. Within the framework of improving environmental education and sustainable development strategies in the Republic of Uzbekistan, teaching the safe use of organic chemical substances is considered one of the key tasks. This article presents scientific and practical recommendations for teaching the ecological properties of organic compounds through chemistry curricula, teaching methods, and laboratory practices in higher education institutions.
