NUE: Hands-On Modules for Nanoscale Science & Engineering Courses

这个纳米技术本科教育（NUE）计划，题为“纳米科学和工程课程的动手模块”，在康奈尔大学，在博士乔尔D。布洛克是由工程教育和中心司在工程和材料研究司在数学和物理科学理事会的司共同资助。 这个合作的跨学科计划的目标，由康奈尔大学应用与工程物理学院（AEP），材料科学与工程系（MSE）和纳米系统中心（CNS）联合提交，是将纳米科学和工程整合到大学新生学习科学和/或工程的课程中。该计划将有两个组成部分：1）模块的开发，包括“动手”的经验和免费的演讲材料，将用于修改和增强现有的新生水平nanosicnece实验室课程;和2）“视频”演示这些新的和几个现有的模块的开发，作为在另一个现有的新生水平纳米科学讲座课程的讲座演示。 这些模块和视频都将用于增强CNS的物理教师研究所及其K-12外展计划。

This Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) program entitled, "Hands-On Modules for Nanoscale Science and Engineering Courses," at Cornell University, under the direction of Dr. Joel D. Brock is jointly funded by the Division of Engineering Education and Centers in the Directorate for Engineering and the Division of Materials Research in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences. The objective of this collaborative, interdisciplinary program, jointly submitted by Cornell's School of Applied and Engineering Physics (AEP), Department of Materials Science and Engineerin (MSE), and Center for Nanoscale Systems (CNS), is to integrate nanoscale science and engineering into the curricula taken by college freshmen studying science and/or engineering. The program will have two components: 1) development of modules consisting of "hands-on" experiences and complimentary lecture material that will be used to modify and enhance an existing freshman level nanosicnece laboratory course; and 2) development of "video" presentations of both these new and several existing modules for use as lecture demonstations in another existing freshman level nanoscience lecture course. Both the modules and the videos will be used to enhance CNS's Institue for Physics Teachers and its K-12 outreach program.
