HST 2014 WORKING GROUP 4

This project explores the integration of animations into secondary school particle physics lessons to enrich the learning experience. By utilizing various media, we aim to capture students' attention and foster excitement about complex concepts in physics. The project focuses on identifying existing animations and creating new storyboards that align with curricular goals. We categorize animations by effectiveness and topic level, addressing gaps in content. Our recommendations emphasize the need for more accessible educational resources that are informative and engaging for students.

  2. USING ANIMATIONS TO INTRODUCE PARTICLE PHYSICS IN SECONDARY SCHOOL • Animationsshould be used to • enhanceourlessonsbyvaryingthemediumof learning • grabtheattention of thestudents • encourageanexcitementaboutparticlephysics TWO DIMENSIONS TO THE PROJECT • Identify and organise useful existing animations • Create storyboards for new animation which fit curricular goals

  3. WEBSITE • http://cern60.web.cern.ch/en/exhibitions/physics/animations

  4. Project work so far Classified Animations as follows; • Usefulness (in class) • Length • Topic (curricular) • Level (Beginners/Intermediate/Advanced) After discussion we identified • Duplicates on the website • The most useful ones for lesson plan ideas • Some gaps in the animations to address common questions from our students

  5. Focus points Animationsneedcontextforteaching! In each of thefollowing áreas, wewillbuild a short lesson plan to tieanimation to relevant syllabus objectives. Weare going to focusontheseareas • (Beginners) CERN Introduction • (Intermediate) Creating a new animationexplainingthe Standard Model • (Intermediate) Creating a new animationexplainingtheapplications of particlephysics in real world • (Advanced) Overview of AcceleratorScience at CERN • (Advanced) Medical Applications of CERN Physics

  6. Example

  7. RECOMMENDATIONS SO FAR • Animations are difficult to find and often duplicated – display all in the same page • Animations have no description on them – include 2 sentences which describe the content and length of this animation • Animations must be downloaded before seeing them – attach a small snapshot or link to Cern60 youtubechannel instead • More to follow… • If you have any ideas – please share!
