Module Description:
This module, from Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), introduces "students to the common processes used to deposit thin films in the fabrication of micro-size devices." This module is divided into the following six units: Knowledge Probe (Pre-test), Primary...
Published by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, this activity allows students to design their own Rube Goldberg device which incorporates shape memory alloys. The goals of the lesson are "encourage students to compare and contrast science and technology; experimental design and...
This learning module, provided by Support Center for Microsystems Education, introduces participants to diagnostic BioMEMS, or biological microelectromechanical systems. The module presents information about the areas in diagnostic medicine that are impacted by the introduction of BioMEMS. The...
This webinar explores the purpose and outcomes of the Micro Nano Technology Education Center's (MNT-EC) Distance Education Focus Group (DEFG). This focus group "fosters collaboration in Micro and Nanotechnologies through high-quality, authentic learning opportunities that are accessible to students...
In this video from the NACK Center, Mario Blanco explores fully synthetic oligonucleotides and how the use of nano-structured ceramic films enables the synthesis of hundreds of DNA genes in gram quantities overnight. Furthermore, Blanco describes how these nano-structured ceramics can be...
Module Description:
This module, from Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), introduces participants to DNA microarrays. The module covers types of arrays, applications, interpretation, design, and fabrication. Included "activities provide the opportunity for students to gain a better...
Module Description:
This module, from Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), provides "an overview of the DNA molecule, its role as genetic material, its molecular components and structure and DNA replication." The module is divided into the following five units: Knowledge Probe (KP or...
Module Description:
This module was created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link) and covers dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC). "This device is essentially a photo-electrochemical cell, which means that a photo-induced chemical reaction causes electrons to travel from one material...
This Genesis learning science module, provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States, teaches students about the requirements and conditions of working in a cleanroom environment. Intended for middle school learners, grades 5-8, this module is broken up into six...
This video, from the Rubbermaid company, demonstrates a plunger which never gets wet. The plunger uses a nanotech coating to stay clean and dry. The video demonstration will help to facilitate discussion about the everyday applications of nanotechnology as well as how this plunger works. Running...
