Description
We present a new model as a part of the Czech Particle Physics Project (CPPP). This module is intended as a learning tool in masterclasses aimed at high-school students (ages 15 to 18). The module is dedicated to the detection of cosmic rays at Earth. First, the user will read a general introduction about the underlying physics and the tasks. Then, the user will separate real shower events from background noise and determine the direction of the cosmic rays showers. Afterwards the knowledge gained by the user is tested with a short quiz and an opportunity to leave feedback. The module has been tested with high-school students and teachers and their suggestions for optimisations are implemented. The new module is available at the following link: https://cern.ch/cppp.
