Art@CMS is an education and outreach initiative of the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. Art@CMS seeks to act as an inspiring springboard for engaging the public in general, and youth in particular, in the excitement of scientific research in High Energy Physics (HEP). It thus aims to promote a long-lasting dialogue between the LHC scientific community, the art world
CMS Virtual Visits offer students, teachers and the general public a unique opportunity to explore the experimental site of the CMS detector. Through a web-based videoconference, CMS scientists interact with visitors in their native language, explain the physics and technology behind the experiment, and answer their questions. The technical requirements for taking part in a virtual visit are: Recent computer with a (preferably wired) network of minimum 1.0 Mbps Video projector and a
How can the combination of science and the arts infuse creativity into the school science classroom? CREATIONS, a three-year project funded under the Horizon 2020 Framework of the European Union, is answering exactly that question. The project is dedicated to developing an engaging science classroom by incorporating creative and art-based approaches into STEM education. The ideas and activities that originate in CREATIONS serve as learning resources for school teachers, helping them enhance
Did you know that: E=mc2 is the most famous equation of all time in Physics? In this community and its corresponding CREATIONS demonstrator, students will be introduced to the science and some major applications of this equation in a way suitable to be presented in the classroom and then they will be guided to create a science fiction story employing the techniques of creative writing.
This community and the corresponding demonstrator will introduce teachers in the principles and methodology of creating science exhibits and exhibitions. Teachers will be able to use the proposed methodology to build their own exhibition refering to science topics of their interest. Guidelines: Teachers who wish to proceed in building their own exhibition are encouraged to create their own subcommunity in which they will attach their own demonstrator and resources and invite interested parties
This community will enable teachers, students and researchers involved in extended collaborative activities. It introducesthem to the field of science through the use of resources and tools bringing together a network of educational communities, eLearning tools and resources and relevant partners of the field. Through the Inspiring Science Education website and the activities organised by the partners, teachers can help students make their own scientific discoveries, witness and understand
The educational activity “Learning Science Through Theater” is an initiative of Science View that is carried out annually in cooperation with variable agents (Faculty of Philosophy, Pedagogy and Psychology of National and Κapodistrian University of Athens, Elliniogermaniki Agogi, Noesis Science Center and Technology Museum and more). Students from all grades (primary school – second grade of high school) are expected to dramatize scientific concepts and knowledge from their school curriculum
Καλώς ορίσατε στην κοινότητα των ελληνικών σχολείων του προγράμματος SEISMOLAB Η κοινότητα έχει στόχο την υποστήριξη των ελληνικών σχολείων που συμμετέχουν στο πρόγραμμα SEISMOLAB. Μπορείτε να μοιραστείτε διδακτικό υλικό και ιδέες με τα μέλη αυτής της κοινότητας, καθώς και να συζητήσετε θέματα που σας ενδιαφέρουν. Η σεισμολογία στη σχολική εκπαίδευση μπορεί να προωθήσει την επιστημονική παιδεία σε όλα τα επίπεδα, αλλά τα οφέλη της είναι πολύ ευρύτερα από την απλή παροχή επιστημονικών γνώσεων
Καλωσορίσατε στην Ελληνική κοινότητα του FRONTIERS! Πιστεύετε ότι θεμελιώδεις ανακαλύψεις όπως αυτή των βαρυτικών κυμάτων ή του μποζονίου Higgs μπορούν να ενταχθούν στη σχολική πρακτική με τρόπο κατανοητό και συνεπή; Μπορείτε να φανταστείτε τους μαθητές σας να επισκέπτονται εικονικά το CERN ή το VIRGO, να αναλύουν πραγματικά πειραματικά δεδομένα και να συνομιλούν με τους πρωταγωνιστές των πιο σύγχρονων ανακαλύψεων της Φυσικής; Το FRONTIERS (www.frontiers-project.eu) αποτελεί μια Ευρωπαϊκή
