项目摘要

This is a five-year project engaging science teachers in cutting-edge research at Department of Energy National Laboratories and at universities across the nation. During the lifetime of the project 60 universities and laboratories from 28 states will participate. Each summer 24 lead teachers, two from each of 12 "university science centers" will hold 8-week summer research appointments at Fermilab. At Fermilab they will work under the guidance of a physicist from a university or laboratory near their homes. All of the research will focus on research related to Fermilab and CERN experiments. The following year these lead teachers and their mentor physicists will lead a year-long research program at each of the 12 centers for up to 10 local associate teachers. These local programs include two components: a 3-week research experience, and ongoing communications via e-mail and a website. The website is the basic starting point for transfer to the classroom of the research experiences and access to near real time data. It is expected that teachers will add to the website through adapting datasets to their needs and developing online experiments. QuarkNet and the high-energy particle physics collaborations are committed to maintaining these centers and the accompanying 8-week summer research experience through the 15 years of the high energy particle physics experimental program with research and related sources of funding.

这是一个为期五年的项目，吸引了科学教师在能源国家实验室和全国大学的尖端研究中。在该项目的一生中，来自28个州的60所大学和实验室将参加。每年夏天，有24名首席老师，来自12个“大学科学中心”中的两个将在费米拉布举行8周的夏季研究任命。在费米拉布（Fermilab），他们将在房屋附近的大学或实验室的物理学家的指导下工作。所有研究将侧重于与Fermilab和CERN实验有关的研究。次年，这些主要教师及其导师物理学家将在12个中心中的每个中心中的每个中心领导一年的研究计划，最多可为10位本地副教授。这些本地计划包括两个组成部分：3周的研究经验以及通过电子邮件和网站进行的持续通信。该网站是转移到研究经验的教室并访问近实时数据的基本起点。预计教师将通过将数据集适应其需求并开发在线实验来添加到网站上。 Quarknet和高能粒子物理合作致力于通过研究和相关资金来源的15年高能粒子物理实验计划维持这些中心以及随附的为期8周的夏季研究经验。
