Nanoscale Manufacturing Curriculum for Advanced Technological Education (NaMCATE)

The project (NaMCATE) is developing benchmarks for nanomanufacturing and eleven nanomanufacturing curriculum modules for community college levels. The project is a collaborative effort of high school, community college and university faculty in New York State and at Arizona State University. The Student Zone of this site has fantastic resources for nanotechnology high school or community college classrooms including an Overview of Nanotechnology, and Bottom-Up and Top-Down Nanomanufacturing. Each section has three or four modules, and each module has reading material, learning activities, assessments, and supplemental presentations. There are also a number of videos and simulations of nanomanufacturing processes.
