The Materials World Modules (MWM) are inquiry-based, supplementary materials that bridge the gap between traditional science curricula and real-world applications. The original modules were content based. The MWM-2002 modules are concept-based modules designed to develop "enduring understandings" through a series of hands-on learning experiences culminating in a design task, which serves as evidence of the conceptual understanding. Five modules have been developed and tested: Structure and Properties of Matter, Forces and Motion, Materials and the Environment, Properties of Solutions, and Bonding and Polarity. To be developed and field tested are Nanotechnology, Electrical Conductivity, Kinetics in Catalytic Reactions, Biotechnology, and Light and Color. The modules are developed in partnership with teachers. The inquiry-based, design modules are integrated with digital resources, video-based teacher training workshops, real-time teacher evaluations, comprehensive student assessments and cyberinfrastructure support. Teachers can customize on-line the modules for local conditions. Evaluation of the materials includes student outcomes, teacher satisfaction and alignment to standards. Other support is sought for large-scale dissemination.

材料世界模块（MWM）是基于探究的补充材料，它弥合了传统科学课程和现实世界应用之间的差距。最初的模块是基于内容的。MWM-2002模块是基于概念的模块，旨在通过一系列实践学习经验来发展“持久的理解”，最终在设计任务中达到高潮，作为概念理解的证据。五个模块已经开发和测试：物质的结构和性质，力和运动，材料和环境，解决方案的性质，键合和极性。有待开发和实地测试的领域包括纳米技术、电导率、催化反应动力学、生物技术和光与色。这些模块是与教师合作开发的。基于探究的设计模块与数字资源、基于视频的教师培训研讨会、实时教师评估、综合学生评估和网络基础设施支持相结合。教师可以根据当地情况在线定制模块。对教材的评估包括学生成绩、教师满意度和与标准的一致性。为大规模传播寻求其他支助。
