MNT-CURN Seminar Series: Ultrafast Spectroscopy of Nanomaterials
No full textThis video is part of a series from the Micro Nano Technology Education Center's (MNT-EC) Micro Nano Technology Collaborative Undergraduate Research Network (MNT-CURN) Research Program. In this program, students gain hands-on research experience and build nanotechnology technical education skills. Throughout this video series, viewers "... will hear and see nanotechnology and microtechnology professors presenting about their own research and work -- from biosensors to underwater drones to nanomaterials." Each video covers a different specialty that students may want to learn about and pursue as an undergraduate research project.During this presentation, Aziz Boulesbaa, assistant professor of chemistry at California State University, Northridge (CSUN), explores the concept of nanomaterial and discusses research in this field at CSUN. Boulesbaa provides an overview of nanomaterials studied in the lab, including types like quantum dots and plasmonics, and highlights various applications of nanomaterials, such as in solar cells or photothermal therapy. Boulesbaa further details the process of researching nanomaterial in the CSUN lab, including equipment used and the interpretation of data. Also discussed are examples of publications co-authored by Boulesbaa's undergraduate students.This video runs 25:16 minutes in length. Additional videos from this series are available to view separately
ATE PI Checklist for Getting Started with Your Evaluation Post-Award
No full textThis 3-page checklist from EvaluATE: Evaluation Resource Center for Advanced Technological Education (ATE) provides guidance on tasks in the evaluation process for principal investigators (PIs) and co-PIs of ATE grant projects. The document begins by identifying groups who collaborate on an evaluation: the external evaluator, project team, partners, and institutional research (IR) offices. The checklist is presented in table format, with columns indicating both the evaluation process task and which of the four groups of collaborators should be involved in completing each task. The checklist covers steps including evaluator selection, contracts, evaluation plan creation, data collection, and reporting
Bridging the Skills Gap in Smart Manufacturing Promotional Materials, 2021-2022
No full textThis collection, published by Marion Technical College, provides promotional materials for the 2021 and 2022 Smart Manufacturing Summer Camps. This 3-day program, located at Marion Technical College's campus, engaged students from ages 12 to 18 in introductory Smart Manufacturing topics. The program introduced students to the internet of things, taught beginner Python, provided hands-on activities, and gave tours of the campus' engineering labs. This summer camp is part of a program that aims to recruit students into Smart Manufacturing industries. The 2021 collection is composed of an informational flyer, survey, and promotional video. The flyer provides information on the date, time, location, and registration process for the program. The flyer also highlights the curriculum. The 3-page survey inquires about participants' ages, experiences with the summer camp, and suggestions for the program. The promotional video provides highlights of lectures, workshops, and tours. The video recording runs 1:28 minutes in length.The 2022 collections is composed of an informational flyer and survey. The flyer provides information on the date, time, location, and content covered during the program. The 4-page survey inquires about each participant's gender, grades, suggestions for improving the summer camp, and more
