Description

The Particle group at the University of Birmingham has a long history of a wide programme of engagement,
spanning from large events for the general public, to several projects for primary and secondary schools and teachers.
This talk will concentrate on our activities related to Science in connection with Art & Craft, both for Primary and Secondary Schools.
In particular, we will present our bespoke workshops "The Particle World", "Physics and Dance" and "Physics and Art"
and we will highlight their impact on students.
