PICO - PhysICs fOr all pedagogical portfolio
Zajednicu 1 memberWelcome to the PICO pedagogical portfolio, the place where we aggregate educational resources, lesson plans, presentations, video links and other prepared in order to introduce frontier science to the school classroom!
Decades of cutting-edge physics research has provided us with major discoveries and launched impressive initiatives in the “Physics of the two Infinites”, the Physics of the very big and the very small. From the exploration of both the immense and the minuscule realms of the universe to the precise measurement of particles like the Higgs boson. PhysICs fOr all – PICO – coordinates researchers' night activities in 4 countries (Greece, Italy, France, Spain) and supports students to increase their awareness of fundamental, cutting-edge physics and of the impact that discoveries in this field have on their everyday lives with a specific focus on equity, diversity, inclusion, and gender equality which will be pervasive to all PICO events and activities. The portfolio showcases ready-made and field tested resources and materials to introduce these topics to the classroom.
