Background To facilitate the implementation of the NSS Physics Curriculum, a series of professional development programmes is being organised. Major domains of the professional development programmes to be provided are: (1) Understanding and Interpreting the Curriculum; (2) Learning and Teaching Strategies; (3) Enriching Knowledge for the Physics Curriculum; and (4) Assessing Student Learning (Including Internal Assessment, School-based Assessment and Standards-referenced Reporting). Please refer to the following webpage for further details of this series: http://cd1.emb.hkedcity.net/cd/science/physics/NSS/nssphy_e.htm This course focuses on the part “Probing into nano scale” of the elective topic “Atomic World” in the NSS Physics Curriculum. Useful learning and teaching strategies and resource materials will be introduced. 
Objective(s) 1. To enrich teachers’ understanding of the concepts and theories involved in nano science; 2. To share with teachers the use of different learning and teaching strategies in “Probing into nano scale” of 'Atomic World'; and 3. To introduce the resource materials and their effective use in classroom.
