This series parallel circuits lesson, from the Contextualize to Learn project at the University of Wisconsin - Madison, is part of a series of seven applied electronics math lessons. This lesson applies linear equations to predict the behavior of electronic components when voltage is applied. Base...
This experiment, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers Shape Memory Alloys or Smart Materials. A Smart Material or Shape Memory Alloys belongs to a class of materials which displays the shape memory effect (SME); they possess the ability to radically change crystal...
This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the metric system. Students will explore the use of the metric system in the activities, and also "read the How Stuff Works article –“How Nanotechnology Works” and answer questions about the article. Further...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, teaches students how to measure the efficiency of a solar cell. Students will compare the output power of a silicon PV cell with the input power of incandescent light bulbs illuminating the PV from a set distance. A Teacher's...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concepts of material properties. Students will study the antimicrobial properties of silver nanoparticles and "document and communicate the entire process via their scientific notebook." A Teacher Preparation...
This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, provides students with the opportunity to "use the pure silver nanoparticles they synthesize to create antibacterial socks." Using a relatable medium like socks allows students to synthesize new information on and...
This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers "the differences in physical properties at the nanoscale as compared to the same materials at the macroscale. The students will demonstrate the appropriate use of a spectrophotometer and will convert between...
This lesson, from the Northern Wyoming Community College District, focuses on the principles of surface mining and reclamation in coal mining using chocolate chip cookies (where the cookie represents the earth and the chocolate chips coal the students will be surface mining). Using tools provided,...
This resource, published by Georgia Tech Research Institute, features a mathematics and decision making activity designed for eighth graders. In this activity, students use simulations, data visualization, and computational skills to craft product reviews for helmets. Additionally, they will and...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, introduces students to "some of the challenges of making semiconductor chips and waveguides." These parts of electronic circuits will help students to understand the role of nanotechnology and nanofabrication processes and...
