Teaching nanotechnology in schools

In the contemporary world, paying attention to new sciences and technologies is one of the basic elements to achieve progress. Undoubtedly, the correct understanding of new sciences and techniques, education and finally their application is the main factor of cultural, social, industrial and economic growth and development. It is obvious that without paying attention to this, the realization of educational and research goals will not be possible in an appropriate manner. Was. Among the new technologies, nanotechnology has attracted everyone's attention. This technology, which is an approach in all fields of science and engineering, has the ability to produce new materials, tools and devices by manipulating atomic and molecular levels. Today, the field of this technology has extended to most basic sciences and engineering and has gained interdisciplinary acceptance. The scope of the application of this technology in the field of medicine, biotechnology, materials, physics, mechanics, electricity, electronics, chemistry, health, agriculture, etc. requires educational systems to provide related concepts and topics. to nano materials and their applications, to increase students' awareness in this scientific field. By gradually including the materials related to nanotechnology in the science and chemistry textbooks of secondary school, it is possible to partially compensate for the lack of knowledge of students in this scientific branch. Although the basic training of this technology requires written planning. The use of appropriate tools, images and classroom research plans can be very useful in conveying the main concepts to students and better understanding the scales.
