It is well known that during the last fifteen years, a strong decrease of interest of the young pupils for exact sciences is observed in the major part of Europe, following the same trend that North America encountered several years ago. A way to invert this trend consists in educating young generations in nanotechnology and nanosciences. The peculiar environment in Grenoble with the presence of world-class research centers and an education oriented center of micro- and nanoelectronics allowed building adapted programs thanks to a strong collaboration between these centers and the secondary school administration. During the last three years, the so-called Nano@school project enabled dozens of classes a year to follow an original curriculum benefiting from this exceptional environment. This paper deals with this experiment. After a description of the project, some analysis and evaluation are presented
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
