Nanoworld webquests with peer review
Web interfaces to activities developed for (i) a walk-thru audience at the St. Louis Science Center and (ii) an introductory chemistry class are discussed.
What is it about?
This project is about "walk-in" investigations that emerged as a result of our role in support of scientific collaborators across the region.
Why is it important?
The nanoworld is often quite protective of its secrets. Just as when the forces of nature in the large prompt members of our species to join forces, so are researchers with expertise and access to tools often inspired to team up to try solving challenges that arise.
Perspectives
We've sometimes been lucky enough to be able to help. In the process, we've promoted adherence to an ethics of analytical support, which means that not all of the information on projects shared with us by colleagues is available on-line.
