Help middle and high school students understand the big implications of tiny technology with Nanoscale Science. Using guided inquiry with open-ended exploration where possible, the book s 20 investigations teach students about the unique properties and behavior of materials at the nanoscale one-billionth of the size of a meter. The activities are organized around five themes: size and scale, tools and techniques, unique properties and behaviors, nanotechnology applications, and societal implications. All activities use readily available materials and provide clear background, instructions, and formative assessments. stain-resistant fabrics to improved means to clean water, to tumor-targeting nanoshells?
