Abstract
This research examines effective strategies for teaching nanoscience and nanotechnology in schools. The aim of the study is to identify common challenges as key barriers to learning, such as students' difficulties in understanding scale, applying physical laws across different magnitudes, and working with powers of ten. Inquiry-based learning is presented as a central approach to enhance student engagement and scientific understanding. By incorporating real-world contexts, hands-on experiments, and science communication projects, educators can foster curiosity and critical thinking. The review also highlights various successful teaching examples, including classroom and extracurricular activities, digital tools, and interdisciplinary collaborations. The main conclusion is that teachers play a pivotal role as facilitators in science education and science communication. Therefore, thorough teacher training and professional development are essential to prepare students for participation in a technology-driven society.with powers of ten.
