This pdf document, provided by NUE: Exposing Engineering Students to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at the University of North Dakota, details a nanoscience and biotechnology activity that asks student to answer the following research question: "Why does hair turn gray?" Students will compare the...
The Sunscreen and Nanotechnology Lab was created by SHINE: Seattle's Hub for Industry-driven Nanotechnology Education. "This lab consists of activities designed to teach students about nanotechnology applications in sunscreens." Lab resources include a 35-page lab manual and lab safety data sheets....
This short YouTube video, which runs for 0:26 was created by Dr. Michael Freudinger in 2008 to demonstrate the slow crystallization of super saturated sodium acetate. The description of the video provides an explanation for the reaction: "A single seed crystal was added to the saturated sodium...
This video discusses some of the work done with superhydrophobic technology at Sandia National Laboratories. This video demonstration is an excellent introduction to the technology and would be useful in facilitating classroom discussion. Running time for the video is 4:10.
Module Description:
This module was created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link) and introduces students to superhydrophobicity. Science and nanoscience concepts covered during the module include molecular bonds, electron density concepts and molecular modeling, atomic and...
This video from the Micro Nano Technology Education Center (MNT-EC) is part of a series of seminars on micro nano technologies and issues in the field. In the video, Matthias Pleil, PI at the Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), talks about the recently funded Undergraduate Research...
This video from the Micro Nano Technology Education Center (MNT-EC) is part of a series of seminars on micro nano technologies and issues in the field. In the video, Kate Alcott discusses how community colleges can engage with active military service members at military bases to build the micro nano...
Module Description:
This module was created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link) and introduces students to surface area to volume ratio concepts. "This simple activity conveys one of the most profound aspects of Nanoscience - that for a given volume of material the total...
Presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, this two-part laboratory activity was designed to complement any chemistry unit on catalysts to "help students understand how nanoparticles may be more effective catalysts by investigating how the surface area-to-volume ratio of a...
In this lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, students will "study how surfactant-based chemistry can be used to synthesize CdSe quantum dots and study how the size of the quantum dots can be controlled by varying reaction time." This lab will help students to...
