International Masterclasses (IMC) offer high school students from 60 countries around the world the chance, to be particle physicsist for one day. They are invited to a research institute and analyse data from LHC experiments. Each Masterclasses day ends with a video conference, where students present and combine their results. The video linkups are moderated by PhD students and Postdocs at CERN. IMC25 will be held from February 24 to April 11. The orientation will introduce moderators to their tasks.
