NanoDays at Northwestern University
Materials World Modules (MWM) and
the National Center for Learning and Teaching in Nanoscale Science and
Engineering (NCLT) sponsored NanoDaysTM 2009 on Saturday, April 4 at Northwestern University. NanoDays
is a nationwide festival of educational programs about nanoscale science and engineering and its potential
impact on the future. NanoDays activities created unique learning experiences for both children and adults
to explore the miniscule world of atoms, molecules, and nanoscale forces. Current Northwestern students
volunteered to run the activities where almost 50 local teachers, students and parents participated. Mark
Hersam, Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and Professor of Chemistry, provided the keynote
lecture: Introduction to the Nanoscale.
