K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan The QuarkNet Collaboration: How “Doing Science” is Changing Science Education Kris Whelan Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Goals Students as researchers Teachers as researchers & facilitators Scientists as mentors

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Classroom Vision Science is what students DO, not what is done to them. School science should reflect the practice of science and should allow students to be active participants.

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan QuarkNet... Supports learning by inquiry. Provides teachers and students with real research opportunities in particle physics. Encourages national and international collaboration among students, teachers and scientists.

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan QuarkNet Origins ATLAS and CMS at CERN

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan CDF & DØ atFermilab QuarkNet Origins

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Multi-Year Program For each center: Year 1 2 lead teachers, 2 mentors 8 weeks research Year 2 2 lead teachers, 2 mentors 8-10 associate teachers 2- to 3-week workshop Years 3, 4, 5,... All in 1-week workshop OR meetings spread out over the year

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Teacher Support Year 1 (2 lead teachers) 8 weeks + travel + subsistence $550/week stipend Year 2 (12 teachers on average) 2-3 weeks $300/week stipend + $250 mini-grant Year 3,... 1 week $300/week stipend + $250 mini-grant

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Teachers as Researchers Construct and test detector components. Create data sets for students. Develop online experiments for students. Develop classroom detectors.

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Totals (Goals) 120 Lead Teachers 600 Associate Teachers 600 Associate Teachers 100,000 Students 100,000 Students GOALS

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Goal: 60 Universities & Labs 12 new centers each year for 5 years (beginning in 1999)

K. Whelan, AAPT, Jan Current Status 53 Active centers 158 Mentors 506 Teachers 33 Summer students
