DESCRIPTION
Since 2008, NanoDays activities have been used to engage all types of audiences and families within the cutting-edge field of nanotechnology. When engaging different audiences, such as younger audiences including children ages 3-8, it is important to target your message in a language that is both understandable and engaging for that age group. Join us as NISE Net partners discuss their experiences working with younger audiences, which NanoDays activities they have found work best and why, how they’ve incorporated nano into their existing programming, as well as lessons learned while presenting on nanoscale science. Learn about our partners’ approaches and strategies for introducing this emerging science to their younger visitors.
