3. R. Ruchti, Notre Dame Education and Outreach and QuarkNet USCMS Annual Meeting, FSU, 10-11 May 2002 3 Partners high school teachers with particle physicists who act as mentors. Teachers get summer research experience. Centers are established where additional teachers, students and physicists are included in the program. Program is funded by US NSF/MPS, NSF/ESIE and DOE –Preliminary program 1998; Full program 1999 + Up to 60 centers are planned over a 5-year period. The proponents for this idea and project: –M. Bardeen (Fermilab Education Office) –R. M. Barnett (LBNL, Atlas Education Coordinator) –O. Keith Baker (Hampton Univ) –R. Ruchti (Notre Dame, USCMS Education Coordinator) QuarkNet

10. R. Ruchti, Notre Dame Education and Outreach and QuarkNet USCMS Annual Meeting, FSU, 10-11 May 2002 10 USCMS Fellows Follow on to the first year of QuarkNet to give HS teachers an in-depth 8-week summer research experience. Typically several teachers supported for the summer. Piloted in previous summers. This year 4 Fellowships –TTU –FIT –Iowa –OleMiss It would be good to expand this to 6 in future years.

11. R. Ruchti, Notre Dame Education and Outreach and QuarkNet USCMS Annual Meeting, FSU, 10-11 May 2002 11 Visitor Gallery at SX5 Effort led by Dave Barney. One of the most popular spots on the CERN laboratory tour for visitors. A mezzanine location at the assembly hall. Currently under development. We have provided a cosmic ray detector. Should have additional video camera plus display screen. Seeking additional detector items for display: –Megatile with WLS fibers. –Optical decoder unit. –Other detector components.

12. R. Ruchti, Notre Dame Education and Outreach and QuarkNet USCMS Annual Meeting, FSU, 10-11 May 2002 12 New Directions Update USCMS Website education items. –Post talks – with sort at various levels. Develop a USCMS Brochure. Issues at CERN Project Office for USCMS. ………New ideas and suggestions welcome
