• Embedding critical thinking skills in chemistry classes is crucial for several reasons.

• Firstly, critical thinking enables students to analyze complex chemical concepts and phenomena, fostering a deeper understanding of the subject. 

• It encourages students to question assumptions, evaluate evidence, and draw logical conclusions, essential skills for scientific inquiry. 

• Additionally, critical thinking promotes problem-solving abilities, as students learn to apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios. 

• By engaging students in active learning and encouraging them to think critically, chemistry classes become more dynamic and interactive, enhancing student engagement. 

• This approach prepares students to become independent thinkers, equipping them with skills that extend beyond the classroom and are valuable in various academic and professional pursuits.

Publishing papers in journals is an essential part of the research cycle. In this workshop, the editors of Wiley journals such as Angewandte Chemie and Advanced Functional Materials will provide tips on good scientific writing, explain editorial practices as well as peer review, and will explain the most recent developments in open data and the use of generative AI tools in writing and publishing. The participants of the workshop will learn how to prepare future manuscripts in the best possible way and increase their chances for a successful publication.
