SimplyNano1® experimental kit in Spanish

The Innovation Society presents the nano-experimental kit „SimplyNano 1®“ in another language - Spanish. The experimental kit is still available for teachers in English, German, French and Russian. The experimental kit „SimplyNano 1®“ was developed by the SimplyScience foundation together with the Innovation Society, St. Gallen and is used internationally. The experimental kit contains experiments from the world of nanotechnology.

Multilingual Nano teaching tool for schools

Without doubt nanotechnology is one of the knowledge and research fields that will play a huge role in the future. There are already a number of consumer products (e.g.: cosmetics, textiles, etc.) on the market that contain nanoparticles. Moreover, there are already many nano-applications for commerce and industry. Despite the importance of nanotechnology, until now there was a lack of teaching tools in schools. Therefore, the SimplyScience foundation developed together with the Innovation Society, St.Gallen the "SimplyNano 1®" experimental kit. It comprises teaching materials, chemicals and laboratory materials for 8 exciting experiments from the world of nanotechnology. The topics nanodimension, reactivity of nanoparticles and nano-surfaces are presented clearly and simple. The kit addresses students from 7th-10th grade, as well as vocational schools. The experimental kit should increase enthusiasm and comprehensibility of scientific-technical topics. In addition to laboratory materials, instructions for students, comments for faculty staff and presentation slides are available. All materials are focused on comprehensibility and attractive graphical material.
