me is Matthias Pleil, I am the Principal Investigator for the Southwest Center for Microsystems Education, a National Science Foundation supported Advanced Technological Education Center - see the "About Us" link for more information.
If you are a STEM faculty at a secondary or post-secondary institution, then this site may be for you! The SCME offers professional development and educational materials to excite and engage secondary and post secondary students in the field of Microsystems (MEMS) technology. This is a fast growing, multidisciplinary field. Microsystems products are found in all the gadgets we use today and require a high level of technical skills by the people you manufacture, design and integrate these devices. By engaging students in learning where these Microsystems are used, how they are made and why they should care, we, as educators, can get them to see the relevancy and importance in learning Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
Have a look at the site, if you are an interested faculty/teacher or administrator, feel free to register on the site. As a registered user, you will have access to additional educational materials than just the samples for the public. We may follow up with you to find out more about what you think and how you used downloaded materials in your class.
Registered users also have access to the Forum - Check it out!
