GLOBAL PERSPECTIVES OF NANOSCIENCE AND ENGINEER...

This book presents the perspectives of nanotechnology educators from around the world. Experts
present the pressing challenges of teaching nanoscience and engineering to students in all
levels of education  postsecondary and informal environments. The book was inspired by the 2014
NSF workshop for Nanoscience and Engineering Education. Since nanotechnology is a relatively
new field  authors present recommendations for designing nanotechnology education programs. The
chapters describe methods to teach specific topics  such as probe microscopy  size and scale 
and nanomaterial safety  in classrooms around the world. Other chapters describe the ways that
organizations like NNIN and the NISE Network have influenced informal nanotechnology education.
Information technology plays a growing role in all types of education and several chapters are
devoted to describing ways how educators can use online curricula for teaching nanotechnology
to students from preschool to graduate school.
