WELCOME

Welcome to the High School Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Blog sponsored by the Microscopy Society of America extending outreach to 7-12 grade teachers interested in connecting with professional microscopists and incorporating real world scanning electron microscopy tools into their curriculum's.

Out of more than 26,000 high schools in the United States, there are currently fifteen middle and high school campuses hosting SEMs on-site. A list of these schools, teacher experiences and related resources are available to all teachers through the Web-Site www.hssemgroup.com.

This blog is intended to provide a communication network between teachers and professional microscpists to answer questions, and to provide direction, exosure and support wherever needed. We look forward to communicating with you often.

This site is an extension of the group HS_SEM@googlegroups.com (old posting available on this site) and the web-site https://sites.google.com/site/hssemgroup/

What is most needed by teachers?

Please let us know if you use or have used an Scanning Electron Microscope in your classroom.

What or how can MSA best provide support incorporating this technology into science projects?

Do you think more or better lesson plans using SEMs would impact the teachers use of an SEM.

Has your school made use of a remote access SEM site such as bugscope?

So you believe teachers familiar with this tool and it's power to captivate student interest?

Thank you for your responses.
