How did the MWM team come up with the topics for the modules?
The MWM program is an ongoing development effort to provide illustrative materials science topics to enrich existing high school science curriculum and to show a concrete linkage between the concepts learned in various disciplines and everyday life. The topics can be classified as critical societal materials, which can be further categorized into: a) materials system and b) materials and society. The MWM program is continuing to seek collaborative efforts with research institutes and industries to develop more modules of relevance to the classroom.
