Subject: [PSCI-COM] NANOTECHNOLOGY EXPLAINED FOR STUDENTS AT SECONDARY SCHOOL LEVEL
GETTING YOUNG PEOPLE INTERESTED IN NANOTECHNOLOGY
I am drafting a nanotechnology fact sheet for South Africa's National Science and Technology Week (coming up in May 2009), spesifically to interest students (learners at high school level) in the topic.
I would be very glad to receive examples of nanotechnology materials speficially developed for young people, or examples of why young people should be interested and what the future of a career in nanotechnology could look like.
