Nuclear Science Week
October 21, 2020|2:00–3:30PM (3:00–4:30PM EDT)
Available to All Users
ANS, in partnership with Discovery Education and the Department of Energy, Office of Nuclear Energy, has developed resources to help K-12 educators teach nuclear science and technology. This webinar will begin with an overview of the resources, followed by reflections and commentary from three educators of various grade levels on their experiences teaching nuclear science and thoughts about ANS’s instructional materials. The webinar will then have a Q&A session with audience-supplied questions, responded to by the educators and an expert from the nuclear industry.
