SUMMARY:Zoom in on Microscopy: NanoEducators Quarterly Forum Sept meeting
DESCRIPTION:Zoom in on microscopy and its connections to chemistry\, physics\, biology\, and engineering using hands-on virtual research tools!\n\nThis session will offer an overview about nanoscience and how microscopy tools such as scanning electron microscopes (SEM) can be brought directly into your classes remotely. Dr. Zac Gray of the NSF-supported Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge (NACK) Network will show attendees how to conduct a remote session with an SEM and image biological and manufactured samples. He will demonstrate how nanoscience can be used as a tool to explore many STEM subjects. The session will end with a tutorial on how to sign up for a free remote session through the NACK website.\n\n \n\n\nThe NanoEducators Quarterly Forum provides K-12 teachers with opportunities for community building\, ideas for classroom experiments\, and engagement with nanotechnology researchers. \n\n \nSeptember 27\, at 5:30 pm EDT. Registration: https://tinyurl.com/ypmwwrtv\n\n\n  \nDownload the NanoEducator PDF flyer here. \nImage Courtesy of Omni Nano and Marco Curreli.

SUMMARY:Like Driving a Car: Acquiring Quality SEM/FESEM Images in Different Situations
DESCRIPTION:Getting good SEM/FESEM images is dependent on both the sample conditions (conductivity\, bulk vs. thin film\, etc) and the instrument’s imaging parameters (e.g.\, beam voltage\, beam current\, working distance\, detector\, etc). Over the course of training and interacting with hundreds of different FESEM users Dr. Liu has observed the most important things a new user needs to know without overwhelming them with theory and trivial operational routines. This allows new users to conceptualize and visualize the electron beam behavior relative to the observed imaging. This webinar will simplify and explain the complex nature of SEM/FESEM imaging by drawing analogies to common things in everyday life such as writing with a pencil and driving a car. \n \nSpeaker: Bangzhi Liu\, PhD \nBio: Dr. Bangzhi received his Ph.D. from Michigan State University and worked as a postdoctoral research scholar in the department of Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University. He is currently employed by Penn State Materials Research Institute as an assistant research professor. He has over 20 years’ experience in materials characterization (FESEM\, TEM\, Auger\, etc) and thin film deposition (PVD and ALD). He has authored and coauthored over 40 peer-reviewed journals. \nRegistration:  \nhttps://psu.zoom.us/webinar/register/3516565307447/WN_N_g1Bpv_Qui59PHPfHm7FA

SUMMARY:The Power to Change the World
DESCRIPTION:There are 103 Historically Black College and Universities (HBCUs) in the United Stated. HBCU’s have existed for for over 200 years and deliver over 27% of the STEM graduates while educating only 10% of the African Americans in higher education in the US. This is an exciting opportunity to leverage the expertise\, innovation\, entrepreneurialism and manpower/woman power of this critical American heritage to be part of the solution for semi-conductor re-birth in the US. Other countries are positioned to far exceed the US in moving to the next level. How does the US win in this race? Use all the best talent available. \nRegistration Required\, Visit: https://psu.zoom.us/webinar/register/3816463183649/WN_kM2kba6uTiaNH_klZpAtmw?MNT-Calendar \nPresenter: Valinda Scarbro Kennedy\, IBM Global University Specialty Programs Manager \nValinda Scarbro Kennedy is the IBM Global University Specialty Programs Manager.

SUMMARY:National Nanotechnology Day
DESCRIPTION:National Nanotechnology Day is an annual celebration featuring a series of community-led events and activities on or around October 9 to help raise awareness of nanotechnology\, how it is currently used in products that enrich our daily lives\, and the challenges and opportunities it holds for the future. This date\, 10/9\, pays homage to the nanometer scale\, 10–9 meters. \nPlanning for various events and activities is underway at schools\, universities\, and various organizations around the country. Whether at home or outside\, there are so many ways to explore advances in nanotechnology and how it is impacting our everyday lives! \nMNT-EC is supporting National Nanotechnology Day with the flowing activities: \n\nListen to one or more of the MNT-EC Talking Technicians Podcasts (Link to podcast page)\nIn honor of National Nanotechnology Day\, October 9th\, the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure (NNCI) is hosting the Plenty of Beauty at the Bottom image contest. Referencing Richard Feynman’s 1959 lecture\, There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom\, this image contest celebrates the beauty of the micro and nanoscale. Vote for your favorite nano image in the NNCI Image Contest.\n\nYou can also check out other activities or find one to do at home by going to the Nano.gov website at National Nanotechnology Day | National Nanotechnology Initiative

SUMMARY:Nano-Educators Topical Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Nano-Educators Topical Seminar Series continues this fall with topics covering lithography\, diffraction\, MEMS\, characterization tools\, microfluidics\, and self assembly. The fall offerings will be every Friday starting on Sept. 17th through Nov. 12th (skipping Oct. 22nd). Experts in their fields from around the country will be giving overviews of the topics\, resources and tips to share with students\, and a variety of simulations and demonstrations of the techniques and tools. Each seminar includes a two-hour discussion beginning at noon EST\, along with additional materials provided through a course management system. You can attend one\, some\, or all the topics. Asynchronous options are available. \n  \nFor more information on the session topics and to register\, visit https://www.cneu.psu.edu/2021/06/17/netsseries/

SUMMARY:Never Go in with a Blank Sheet of Paper: A Guide for Educators with a Desire to Reach and Work with Industry
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED \nMore information will be available at a later date for participants to access this session. \nEducators at all levels desire for their students to succeed. For Community College educators teaching technical education course success is often defined as “graduates getting jobs”. Achievement of this goal is often tied to having a direct correlation between the student outcomes from the courses in the program and the industry requirements for new hires at a technician level. Industry participation in CC technical education programs is critical to ensure this correlation and also provide students with insight into the career environment and the myriad of opportunities available. \nThis workshop will focus on a three-step process that educators can follow to prepare them to: \n\nsuccessfully execute the initial contact with industry\nbe prepared for a “face to face” meeting with an industry person and\ninvite participation of the industry/company as a supporting participant in the technician program.\n\nDuring the workshop the participants will walk through the process for their particular technical education program and industry segment. Workshop results will be a checklist of items to complete and various suggestions as well as the first draft of the content that will go on a “blank sheet of paper”. \nPresenter: Deb Newberry\, Founder and CEO- Newberry Technologies \n
