Teaching Resources

Here we have a set of teaching modules being developed by Yale's CRISP (NSF MRSEC) effort. The main idea is to have a set of teaching modules/kits for secondary school students to broaden their understanding of the history of technology and its practices. We focus in part on the materials aspects that provide a foundation for the technology.
