Ages 7 - Adult
Nanoparticle Stained Glass (cart demo)
In this activity, learners make a collaborative stained glass window and a take-away card with pre-made nanoparticle solutions containing silver or gold
Product
Forms of Carbon
In this activity, learners interact with models of four different forms of carbon to explore how the nanoscale arrangement of atoms dramatically impacts a material’s macroscale behavior.

Intro to Nanomedicine video
An exhibit that was part of the Nanotechnology: What's the Big Deal? exhibition that is the introductory component for the Nanomedicine exhibit package; but the video on it's own is also an informative stand-alone media piece for other uses.
Product
Changing Colors exhibit
An exhibit that was part of the Nanotechnology: What's the Big Deal? exhibition that shows how some high-tech nanomaterials mimic natural phenomena.
Product
Nanomedicine Explorer Kiosk exhibit
An exhibit that was part of the Nanotechnology: What's the Big Deal? exhibition that is an interactive, updateable multimedia kiosk and media package, that is also available as a component of the Nanomedicine Exhibition.
Product
Bump and Roll exhibit
An exhibit that was part of the Nanotechnology: What's the Big Deal? exhibition that demonstrates nanomaterial properties using an everyday object: a leaf of cabbage.
Product
Balloon Nanotubes Tabletop
In this activity, learners build a model of carbon nanotubes out of balloons to explore the material's structure and properties.
Product
Magic Sand / Nanosurfaces
In this activity, learners discover that "magic" sand repels water because of a nanoscale hydrophobic coating on the grains of sand.
Product
Lotus Leaf Effect
In this activity, learners explore how some leaves are self cleaning and repel water due to their nanoscale features.
Product
Cutting It Down to Nano
In this activity, learners cut a small strip of paper in half as many times as they can to explore scale.
