Introduction

Objectives: j 1 I f b t k

  • 1. Inform about my work

2 Give an understanding of didactical considerations and

  • 2. Give an understanding of didactical considerations and

constraints

  • 3. recommend strongly to transform MC completely to

LHC carefully and not too fast (from a didactical point of view)

Event Display and User Interface

User interface, , implementation of event display, integration of real data

  • concept for choosing data
  • choosing data
  • converting of real data into event

Concept of Masterclasses‐Day

What we need: Convey Concepts and ideas about fundamental questions and possible discoveries to students through suitable exercises in LHC‐Masterclasses. Lectures and exercises that ensure the success of understanding and discovery. Roadmap: Roadmap:

  • 1. Review on Masterclasses – LEP
  • 2. Point out the didactic concept and ways of understanding

fundamental physics in LEP ‐ Masterclasses

  • 3. Develop a comparable concept to LEP ‐ Masterclasses

Concept of Masterclasses-Day – most important didactical challenge didactical challenge

  • Activate students own thinking
  • Give them a problem‐oriented task with an easily

understandable but important result

  • Do not give them only a pattern‐recognition task
  • Students want to have a real problem, a big challenge

Concept of Masterclasses-Day Insights I

  • Fundamental insight just by counting charges!

Insights I

– Proton has more u-quarks than d-quarks

Slide 15 kj1 Normally, students do not know that the proton consists of elementary particles. We have to let them explore this fundamental knowledge.

Day Structure & Evaluation

Typical agenda + unusual workflow ‐ Too many lectures = boring challenge !!!

Day structure & Evaluation

Suggestion: I. Introduction II. First meeting (in large groups, depending on number of participants, to discuss exactly the aims of MC, the action of students and the routine of day)

  • III. First lecture
  • IV. First exercise

V. Second lecture

  • VI. (Second) PC Exercises in large groups
  • VII. Discussion session at University

d f

  • VIII. Videoconference

Day structure & Evaluation

NEW: First exercise But why? create and increase student activity (usual paper work, e.g. draft tracks of certain particles in detectors, a small calculation or an exercise to deal with Feynman‐Diagrams )

  • ther purposes:
  • consolidation of knowledge
  • making knowledge and tools available for afternoon session
  • give us feedback about knowledge and ability

Day structure & Evaluation

The aims of evaluation are: to prove if and how we have achieved our aims of the MC event to adapt have achieved our aims of the MC‐event to adapt concept (if necessary) Aims of the MC (see [1]): Aims of the MC (see [1]):

stimulate interest in science; demonstrate the scientific research process; make data from modern particle physics experiments available to students; explore the fundamental forces and building blocks of nature Konrad Jende (TU Dresden), EPPOG meeting October 31st 2009

Summary and outlook

  • 1. most important didactic challenge:

bl i t d t k ith il problem‐oriented task with an easily understandable but important result understandable but important result

  • 2. Use an event display that fulfils

p y important didactic criteria for getting data to students

  • 3. Develop a whole concept

Summary and outlook

Upcoming tasks: p g 1. Didactic design of MC‐exercises 2. Developing of user’s interface and embedding of event 2. Developing of user s interface and embedding of event display 3 Developing a questionnaire for evaluation (pre after 3. Developing a questionnaire for evaluation (pre, after, delayed, very delayed) 4 Ch i f d t t 4. Changing of day structure 5. Realisation, organisation and translation of concept (from June 2010) 6. Implementation of MC and evaluation (during 2011) 7. Implementation of changes arising through evaluation and LHC‐discoveries
