NISE Network

Nanoscience - the study of how materials take on unique properties when observed at the smallest of scales - has become increasingly important in all areas of science, with profound impacts on medicine, technology, and engineering. However, many members of the public have a hard time understanding this new and exciting field. Enter the National Informal STEM Education Network (NISE Network). Comprised of 14 museums, universities, and professional organizations, the NISE Network produces a variety of materials designed to help scientists, educators, and museum professionals engage the public with nanoscience. Detailed K-12 lesson plans are provided, as well as activities for more informal settings, such as after-school programs. Thanks to the inclusion of videos and detailed lesson descriptions, educators can implement and adapt these activities with ease. All materials are free to download and readers may subscribe to receive a monthly Newsletter to find out about community news, upcoming events, and more.
