Title :

Development of web enabled learning/training modules for nanomaterials, fabrication and devices

Area of research :

Engineering Sciences, Computer Sciences and Information Technology, Physical Sciences

Focus area :

Pedagogy of nanomaterials

Principal Investigator :

Prof. Neeraj Khare, Professor, Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), New Delhi

Details

Executive Summary :

High impact learning/training modules for different topics on nanotechnology contents such as synthesis of nanomaterials, characterization and device fabrication will be developed. The course contents will be hosted on customised portal for access through internet or mobile apps to facilitate learning of students in the area of nanotechnology including learning via massively open online course (MOOCS). Some of the modules for onsite training will include the use of equipment/facilities for fabrication and characterization. The effectiveness of web enabled learning/training modules will be tested and demonstrated through user workshops and field tests.
