Onboarding for new science communicators / Nuclear Astrophysics Masterclass

Europe/Zurich
Description

Onboarding for new science communicators

This online onboarding event consists of two parts, which can be joined independently. The first part gives an introdution to  Netzwerk Teilchenwelt for everyone who just joined or eventually wants to do so. It addresses to new science communicators, university contacts and interested students. 

This onboarding helps you to get to know other science communicators and gives you the chance to learn about all aspects of Netzwerk Teilchenwelt: How to become an active part of the network, for which events are you paid and what kind of workshops are offered for students, teachers or science communicators.

We will try to answer all your questions! 

In the second part one particular Masterclass is presented in more detail to give an idea and one example of what you as a science communicator can actively do in Netzwerk Teilchenwelt. Also, to give an example what topics are typically explained to the students in talks or what type of hands-on excercises are possible within the different Masterclasses that exist.

For experienced people this part can be used to exchange materials and ideas on a certain Masterclass. Often several sites in Germany offer the same Masterclass, they share some material, but often each site has its own games, slides or aspects how to best communicate the topic to the students. It can be quite fruiteful to exchange these ideas and share the experience with others. So, whether new or experienced, register, join and enjoy! 

 

Both parts are held via zoom:

      • a) Introduction to Netzwerk Teilchenwelt

        This introductory talk includes a short presentation of Netzwerk Teilchenwelt and how to become an active science communicator. Also, possibilities to extend your science communication skills and links to materials for the differnt masterclasses will be presented. You are highly encouraged to join and ask all your questions!

      • a) The Nuclear Astrophysics Masterclass

        Within the framework of the EU project ChETEC-INFRA, a new Masterclass on Nuclear Astrophysics has been developed. This interdisciplinary field of science provides a new didactic perspective on nuclear and astrophysical processes by addressing the link between these two subjects. The Nuclear Astrophysics Masterclass picks up this didactic potential. It includes the analysis of measurement data from a nuclear reaction studied at the Felsenkeller Laboratory in Dresden. Furthermore, the processes behind nucleosynthesis are reconstructed with the help of various gamification elements. The talk will present the teaching materials, the didactic concept as well as the experiences made so far in the implementation of the Masterclass.
