Material Detail

Are you interested in bringing nanoscience into your classroom? Well, this website may be just the thing to help. Created by staff members at the Center for Probing the Nanoscale at Stanford University and supported with funds from the National Science Foundation, the site offers instructional materials for teachers. Most of the materials can be found in the Activities area. Here interested parties will find a number of hands-on activities, including "Pouring it Out" and Invisible Rays." Each activity comes with instructions and discussion questions, and some of them have instructional videos of each activity in action. In the Explore More area, visitors can check out fact sheets on nanoscale tools, nanoscale images, and scanning probe microscopy. The site is rounded out by links to other related sites from the University of Albany and Rice University.
