Is the next ‘big idea’ really small?

How did each of these ‘big ideas’ change the world? Discussion in groups

What links these images? Graphene

Is graphene this small ‘big idea’? http://www.graphene.manchester.ac.uk/discover/the-people/sir- andre-geim/ http://www.graphene.manchester.ac.uk/discover/video-gallery/story- of-graphene/made-in-manchester/ Watch first video 3.30 to end. Andre Geim talking about next industrial revolution Read handout:

So what is graphene? http://www.graphene.manchester.ac.uk/explore/the-story-of- graphene/

Sticking with graphene… Read the Science Watch article http://archive.sciencewatch.com/inter/aut/2008/08- aug/08augSWGeim/ Explain how Andre discovered the Scotch Tape method for producing graphene. Try to make some yourself! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PifL8bAybyc or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwmxSjydPEE PDF of science article available

Graphene scientists awarded prizes Andre Geim won a Nobel prize for science for his graphene discoveries. Many young scientists are also winning prizes for their work in nanotechnology: Water purification: Sebastian Leaper http://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/manchester-scientist- develops-designer-membranes Low power memory devices: Nazek EL Atab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6uzZRJprZw
