纳米技术与社会：以讨论为基础的本科课程
Nanotechnology and Society: A discussion-based undergraduate course
摘要：
纳米技术已经成为一个广泛的，令人兴奋的，但不明确的科学研究和技术创新领域。关于这项技术潜在的经济、社会和环境影响，存在着一些重要的问题。我们讨论了纳米科学和纳米技术本科课程的学生从广泛的学科，包括自然科学和社会科学，人文科学和工程。该课程探讨了这些问题以及技术在当代社会中更广泛的地位。该课程围绕主动学习方法建立，旨在培养学生的批判性思维能力，书面和口头沟通能力，以及纳米科学和纳米工程概念的一般知识。持续评估被用来获得有关课堂讨论的有效性和提高学生对纳米技术与社会之间的相互作用的理解的信息。
英文摘要：
Nanotechnology has emerged as a broad, exciting, yet ill-defined field of scientific research and technological innovation. There are important questions about the technology's potential economic, social, and environmental implications. We discuss an undergraduate course on nanoscience and nanotechnology for students from a wide range of disciplines, including the natural and social sciences, the humanities, and engineering. The course explores these questions and the broader place of technology in contemporary societies. The course is built around active learning methods and seeks to develop the students' critical thinking skills, written and verbal communication abilities, and general knowledge of nanoscience and nanoengineering concepts. Continuous assessment was used to gain information about the effectiveness of class discussions and enhancement of student understanding of the interaction between nanotechnology and society.
