Description
The CERN educational programme aims for a broad spectrum of educational opportunities from high-school students to professional and well experienced science teachers.
In 2017 three new projects have been launched to complement these efforts. The High-School Students Internship Programme (HSSIP) offers a two weeks national internship experience for students aged 16 to 19, enabling them to strengthen their understanding of science. The S’Cool LAB Summer Camp extends the S’Cool LAB offers by a two weeks residential programme enabling high-school students from around the world to experience hands-on science in an international research laboratory. The International Teacher Weeks is a two weeks programme that enables high-school teachers to develop further in the field of particle physics and exchange knowledge and experience among teachers from all over the world. CERN’s Physics Education Research team and its projects and programmes will be presented, and the first experience with the above-mentioned programmes will be discussed together with the future plans to monitor and evaluate these programmes.
