Abstract Details (PID = P154)
Title:90-Minute Masterclass: Bringing Particle Physics to Your Classroom [Double Length] (P154)
Description:Through International Masterclasses, more than 13,000 students around the world have the opportunity to be a "physicists for a day" by learning about and analyzing data from a world-class particle physics detector. Students in participating classrooms get to read real data that were collected by an experiment conducted at Fermilab or CERN. In this session, you will get to experience what your students will do as part of a masterclass, analyzing real particle physics data and working together to apply physics principles and make a measurement. We will also share activities that will help you prepare your students for a masterclass and incorporate particle physics examples into topics that are already in your curriculum. Participants should bring a laptop computer if possible.
