A broad strategy for engaging K-12 teachers and students in molecular nanoelectronics has been developed. Hands-on experiences include (1) a scanning probe microscopy (SPM) modeling activity to demonstrate how nanoscale data may be obtained and interpreted, (2) student-created MATLAB GUI interfaces for image analysis, and (3) synthesis of polynucleotides as nano-scale materials applicable in circuits. We will demonstrate our custom designed activity that allows students to tactilely �image� a sample surface.
