American c Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Developed Curriculum for Introducing Quantum-Dots to High School Students, (Resource Exchange)Abstract A Ph.D. engineering student and high school chemistry teacher collaborated to teach theconcept of Quantum-dots (Q-dots) and their applications through three main stages: introductionto the topic, hands-on activity, and topic expansion. Students were engaged through a 5-minuteintroduction on “nanoscales” and “nanoparticles”. Students then made particles using a dye
assembled as a group. Questions for the students arelisted with a “Q” symbol. Comments are marked with bullets. The instructor leads the activitythroughout, announcing each step and making sure that all student groups have completed thestep before proceeding with the next step.INTRODUCTIONQ: Have you ever changed a light bulb?Q: Why did you change the light bulb?Q: What happened when the new light bulb was put in the lamp? • When a light bulb is burned out, it does not light because the lamp’s circuit is open (draw an open circle on the board, one that does not connect the end to the beginning). • When a new light bulb is placed in the lamp, the lamp’s circuit is closed and electrons can move around the circuit (draw a closed circle on

Furthermore, students completed an end of unit assessment. Theassessment included 20 multiple-choice questions and five open-ended questions.Table 1: The engineering design process by week Week EDP Activity • Read the problem, identify questions to ask about constraints 1 ASK • Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zz_CRzcIT-Q • Create a list of questions that would aid in development • Imagine possible design solutions 2 IMAGINE • Watch https
