  1. Quarknet Seminar Alisa Bredensteiner Endeavour Institute Santa Cruz Institute of Particle Physics Quarknet August 2010

  2. What happens when you mix one exuberant teacher…

  3. … a group of excited educators…

  4. … some really expensive equipment…

  5. … and lots of tape?

  6. Cosmic Ray Detection

  7. What I have gained from my week at SCIPP • A better understanding of Cosmic Rays, particle decay, Supersymmetry and the Multiverse! • A great reminder of how incredibly huge I am compared to say a muon. • A great reminder of how incredibly tiny I am compared to say a universe. • A CRMD • The tools to bring ‘real physics’ and cutting edge scientific discovery to my classroom

  8. Classroom Application 2nd and 3rd year Endeavour students • One week introduction and research on Cosmic Rays and muon detection • 3 weeks for student developed experiments, analysis, and poster presentation. Future aspirations • Collaborative projects (comparison studies, shower studies, etc…) with other schools • Introductory Unit with 1st year students
