This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers self-assembly of molecules. Two activity are contained in this lesson. The first is "a hands-on modeling activity designed to introduce students to the area of nanotechnology and give them a basic understanding of...
The Molecular Expressions website features photo galleries that explore the fascinating world of optical microscopy. The site offers a large collection of color photographs taken through an optical microscope (commonly referred to as "photo-micro-graphs"). The Photo Gallery contains an introductory...
Molecular Workbench (MW) is free, open-source software that works to improve the ability of all students to understand fundamental biological phenomena in terms of the interactions of atoms and molecules by enhancing biology courses with guided explorations of powerful atomic and molecular...
This module, created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), introduces students to nanoparticles. During the learning activity students "make gold nanoparticles through a chemical process, and examine their optical properties."
Learning outcomes for this module are:
Understand...
Module Description:
This module, created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), introduces students to the technologies, processes and methods used for the creation of nanocelluloses. During the learning activity students produce a nanofiber paper by creating and processing pulp...
Module Description:
This module, created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), introduces students to nanoconrete, "the nanotechnologies, processes, and methods being tested by industry to prepare strong and lightweight cementitious products and systems." During the learning...
Module Description:
This module, created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), introduces students to nanofiltration, a technique that can remove "even the smallest of pathogens" from community water sources. In this module students will "use a model to illustrate the...
This video, made available by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), provides an overview of safety measures for a nanoparticle synthesis laboratory. In the video students are shown demonstrating safety measures in a nanoscience laboratory for the following topics: planning, storage...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, introduces students to the intersection between plastics, nanotechnology, and aquatic ecosystems. Students will "model how nanoparticle pollution travels from land to water. This lab is part 1 of a 2-part series of labs...
This video from CUNY Kingsborough Community College describes negative staining. The brief demonstration is described step by step and would be easy to replicate in a laboratory setting. Running time for the video is 1:32.
