Powers Of Ten: From Meters To Nanometers And Beyond, Rob Snyder
Nanotechnology Teacher Summer Institutes
The goal of this activity is to guide students toward an understanding of nanoscale dimensions by:
-
Making a number of measurements using meter sticks, magnifiers, microscopes and spectrometers so students can make observations and generate their own data.
-
Using scientific notation to compare the measurements they have made with the dimensions of very small structures
