ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is a heavy-ion detector on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) ring. It is designed to study the physics of strongly interacting matter at extreme energy densities, where a phase of matter called quark-gluon plasma forms. All ordinary matter in today’s universe is made up of atoms. Each atom contains a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons (except hydrogen, which has no neutrons), surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Protons and neutrons are in turn made of

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

Description This community is related to primary schools and teachers. The children under better the physical phenomena of sound. Moreover wants to prove that these phenomena help to create better acoustics in the ancient Greek theatre. Specifically the children discover through experiments that sound is a wave, where infusion through objects is better; if it reflects or stops the sound. Based on what has already been said the children understand better the architecture of the ancient Greek

The difficulty in visualising what takes place in the quantum world has a close relationship to the artist attempting to express their ideas and emotions about the world. Both are concerned with “making the invisible, visible.” “In-Public” a new community arts group co-founded by Ian Andrews and Sarah Fortes Mayer have been collaborating with the particle physics group at the University of Birmingham to develop a series of workshops for schools. The workshops, developed with particle physicist

PLATON (Promoating Learning Aproaches for the Teaching of Natural Sciences) aspires to provide teachers and school communities with a coherent teachers’ training framework which will update their current teaching practices. More particularly, PLATON aims to offer an open and innovative training framework to teachers of primary and secondary education which will focus on: - PROMOTING STUDENT-CENTRED TEACHING APPROACHES like the Inquiry Based Science Education (IBSE) approach so as to better

Community This is a community by UK primary teachers of the Playing with Protons programme at CERN. In here you will find learning resources such as educational scenarios and lesson plans but also school initiatives and more on primary science education. All this has been developed by the CREATIONS team and most importantly by the teachers themselves who, together with you, constitute an ever-growing community of passionate, innovative and creative primary science educators. You are also
