Materials Research Society (MRS) holds two meetings (the Fall meeting in December and the Spring meeting in April) each year. These meetings are attended by a large number (about 6,000 or more) of materials researchers and educators. Since 1996, nine Materials Education related symposia have been held at MRS meetings. These symposia have become a major forum where materials educators present results of innovative curriculum development, the use of new educational and pedagogical methods, lab and multimedia modules; discuss important current issues; and exchange ideas pertaining to Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) education. The topics discussed in these meetings have also included increasing the public awareness and understanding of materials, and outreach methods. The Fall 2007 MRS meeting will be held in Boston from November 26-30, 2007. The ?Forum on MSE Education for 2020? at this meeting will consist of invited and contributed presentations on current Materials Education related activities and two panel sessions. Invited speakers and participants include faculty from high school, community colleges, and undergraduate and graduate institutions as well as science museum directors. The organizers will strive to have a diverse set of speakers from around the world. TECHNICAL DETAILS: The topics for discussion in this forum include several key issues concerning materials science education: (i) novel undergraduate and graduate curricula and courses, (ii) outcomes from selected NSF programs, (iii) approaches for increasing diversity in MSE programs, (iv) outreach through Nanoscale Informal Science education Network and other opportunities, (v) integration of cyber infrastructure, digital libraries and e-science, and (vi) international activities. Panel sessions planned will focus on ?Building infrastructure to support education initiatives,? and ?Addressing 'pipeline' issues through informal and K-12 science education.?

材料研究协会（MRS）每年举行两次会议（12月的秋季会议和4月的春季会议）。 这些会议由大量材料研究人员和教育工作者参加。自1996年以来，在MRS会议上举行了九个与教育有关的材料与教育专题讨论会。 这些研讨会已成为一个主要的论坛，材料教育者在其中提出创新课程开发的结果，新的教育和教学方法，实验室和多媒体模块的使用；讨论重要的当前问题；并交换与材料科学与工程（MSE）教育有关的想法。 这些会议中讨论的主题还包括提高公众对材料和外展方法的了解和理解。 2007年秋季的MRS会议将于2007年11月26日至30日在波士顿举行。在本次会议上，将由受邀并撰写有关当前材料教育活动和两个小组会议的演讲。受邀演讲者和参与者包括高中，社区学院，本科和研究生机构以及科学博物馆主任的教师。 组织者将努力拥有来自世界各地的各种演讲者。技术详细信息：本论坛中的讨论主题包括有关材料科学教育的几个关键问题：（i）新颖的本科和研究生课程和课程，（ii）所选NSF计划的结果，（III）通过Nansoscale Indlectal Inlultal Inlunsection Commutition和其他cyber Inflocture and Indialer Indital Indital Indital Indital Inflocter，（IV）增加MSE计划的多样性的方法，（IV） （vi）国际活动。计划的小组会议将重点放在？建筑基础设施以支持教育计划，？并通过非正式和K-12科学教育解决“管道”问题。
