Description
Masterclasses are one-day outreach events for high school students, introducing them to topics of current research. Within the ChETEC-INFRA project, Masterclasses on Nuclear Astrophysics were developed. This interdisciplinary field of science provides a new didactic perspective on nuclear physics and astrophysics by addressing the link between these subjects. The Masterclasses pick up this didactic potential. They include the reconstruction of processes behind the nucleosynthesis with the help of gamification elements and the analysis of scientific data. The masterclasses are evaluated with questionnaires in a pre- and post-design to investigate the potential of promoting interest in the subject of nuclear astrophysics.
