In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, learners explore deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a nanoscale structure that occurs in nature.

In this activity/demo, learners investigate biobarcodes, a nanomedical technology that allows for massively parallel testing that can assist with disease diagnosis.

In this activity (page 10), learners explore how molecules self-assemble according to forces of attraction and repulsion.

In this activity, learners examine antibodies and antibody recognition using a model.

In this activity, learners design a therapeutic agent to image and/or cure various diseases in the respiratory system.

In this activity (page 12), learners explore how molecules self-assemble and how molecules must fit together, like a lock and key, in order to identify each other and initiate a new function as a comb

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Where's Nano? Activity) about identifying nanoscale objects and phenomena in today's world.

This is a hands-on activity exploring how nanoscale particles are used in mineral sunblocks to increase their transparency.

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

In this activity, learners participate in several full-body interactive games to model the process of self-assembly in nature and nanotechnology.

In this activity, learners make self-assembled polymer spheres.

In this game, learners explore the different sizes of things in the world. In this Twister-like game, learners must place a hand or foot on a circle of the right scale - macro, micro, or nano.

In this activity/demo, learners examine a synthetic gecko tape with micron sized hairs that mimics the behavior of the gecko foot.
