Particle Physics Manager Objectives Educational game communicating particle physics and science ideas Suitable for 12-16yrs (KS3/4)

KS3 Science Curriculum 'Key Concepts' 1.1 Scientific thinking 1.2 Applications and implications of science 1.3 Cultural understanding 1.4 Collaboration

KS4 Science Curriculum 'Key Concepts' “During KS4 pupils learn about the way science and scientists work within society”

How can the game educate? Active decision making e.g., overcome a particular problem Resource management / Problem solving Explanatory dialogues Short, focused description of key points

Scope of the game LHC-based Possible goals: » Design an effective collider / campus » Discover Higgs boson Advantages: » Highly focused – can communicate more detail on current particle physics without overwhelming user » Current topic

Scope of the game Possible flow: Review proposed designs and advice / theory Assign construction contracts Run experiments Refine detectors / collider Endgame: Discover Higgs, etc LHC-based

Scope of the game Historical Possible goals: » Manage and design a CERN-like site over several decades » 'Beat' CERN's progress » Reach discovery milestones Advantages: » Greater potential divergence of user experience » Communicates importance of prior work on progress

Scope of the game Possible flow: Identify potential frontier to explore Assign construction contracts Run experiments Refine detectors / collider / campus Reach discovery milestone Historical Design new experiment

Open Questions What scope is most appropriate or interesting? Which goals are suitable and how can a user's performance be evaluated on them? What mechanics would effectively reward those who understand the science presented without frustrating those that do not?
