The adoption of equitable and inclusive teaching strategies in the undergraduate chemistry classroom is essential if equity gaps are to be minimized. Reducing these gaps will foster a diverse talent pool of future chemists to propel creativity and innovation. To cultivate an equitable and inclusive environment, instructors must engage in ongoing critical self-reflection, focus on students’ assets rather than deficits, create a relationship with the student as an individual, use best practices for engaging a diverse student population, and affirm students’ potential as scientists. Evidence-based strategies for successfully implementing transformation in the chemistry classroom and examples used in introductory chemistry courses are provided and discussed.
