Teachers gain hands-on experience in the cutting-edge techniques and tools used in nanoscale science and engineering within RTNN facilities. All participants will conduct a research study; example projects are listed below. Teachers spend time designing curricular materials to use in their classroom and will share these teaching materials during the program and after they return to their home institution. Participants will have weekly seminars focused on nanotechnology from RTNN faculty and industry leaders. Join us for an interesting summer learning about advances in research, getting involved in your own study, and thinking about new ways to teach science and engineering.
Mr. Edwin Paul Davis was selected as one of 11 teachers to participate in a 5 week Research Experience for Teachers for 2021. Mr. Davis is standing in the Clean Room at North Carolina State University semiconductor facilities.
