SQU hosts nanotechnology forum

Muscat, Bahrain | Posted on January 1st, 2016

Oman National Commission for Education, Culture and Science (ONCECS) organized the forum in collaboration with the International Organization for Leisure Investment in Technology and Science (Milest), according to Oman News Agency (ONA).

The forum was attended by a number of experts and specialists in the field of nanotechnology from inside and outside the Sultanate.

The forum came out with a number of recommendations, including the importance of including science and nanotechnology in the curriculum taking into account the various stages of study, work with the Arab Bureau of Education for the Gulf States in the adoption of programs and initiatives that support nanotechnology in the educational framework, as well as localization and standardization of concepts and terms that deal with the Nano science and technology at the level of GCC countries.

The forum also recommended the importance of preparation of training packages for teachers and supervisors to enhance their competence in Nano science and technology and the development of pre-service teacher preparation programs to ensure having the necessary competencies and skills in the field of Nano science and technology.

Dr. Dawood al- Ahmad, Milest's Asia Manager gave a speech in which he said that the forum included a group of experts in this scientific field and pointed out that the papers presented, with their depth and diversity sought to raise awareness of nanotechnology and to find ways to take advantage of the development in this area .

The sponsor of the activity honored at the end of the concluding ceremony the participants in the forum, ONA reported.
