In the context of the rapid development of Science and technology, the formation of students '
skills of research activities is of particular importance. The article discusses modern approaches to
teaching chemistry in the context of sustainable development. Today, the subject of chemistry in the
context of Sustainable Development occupies an important place, as it helps to solve many
problems, from the study of the molecular foundations of life to the creation of new energy sources
that can ensure sustainable development in the future. In addition, the authors offer a research
methodology that can be used when teaching the discipline "fundamentals of research work in
Chemistry" for 2nd year students studying in the specialty chemistry. This methodological approach
is aimed at developing critical thinking, Environmental Responsibility and research competence of
future specialists. The paper describes the basic pedagogical principles, methods of active learning,
as well as examples of practical tasks and projects aimed at integrating sustainable development
into the educational process. Particular attention is paid to the introduction of project and problem
oriented training, which allows students not only to master theoretical knowledge, but also to apply
them in practical activities. In this context, innovative teaching methods such as research
laboratories, the use of digital technologies to model chemical processes, as well as an
interdisciplinary approach that contributes to a comprehensive study of sustainable development are
considered.
The proposed teaching methodology is aimed at forming students ' skills to independently
search for information, conducting chemical experiments with an emphasis on environmentally safe
technologies, as well as analyzing the data obtained taking into account the principles of green
chemistry. For this, special training modules have been developed, which include the study of
alternative energy sources, Waste Recycling, Environmental Pollution Control and the development
of new materials that have the least impact on nature.
