  1. Teaching Risk Studies

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    24 Apr 2008 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): David M. Berube

    Risk studies needs to be taught to all students. While not necessitating a stand-alone status in educational settings prior to post-secondary education, it might behoove to find creative ways to add components of risk studies to K-12 curriculum. This lecture will examine some of the challenges...

  2. Modern X-ray Scattering Methods for Nanoscale Materials Analysis

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    15 Oct 2008 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Richard J. Matyi

    Since its discovery by von Laue in 1912, X-ray diffraction has become an indispensable tool for structure determinations in the physical and biological sciences. X-rays are characterized by high energies and by wavelengths that are commensurate with nanometer-sized structures – unlike optical...

  3. DragonflyTV Nano – Using the Power of Television to Introduce Middle School Children to Nanotechnology

    5.0 out of 5 stars 

    15 Jan 2009 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Richard Hudson, Joan Freese, Angie Prindle, Lisa Regalla

    DragonflyTV is a PBS science series for children, broadcast nationwide and on the internet. DragonflyTV models authentic science inquiry through its unique approach: In each episode, ordinary kids conduct their own inquiry-based investigations, modeling the inquiry process and communicating the...
