Particle Physics Outreach to Secondary Education

Journal Article · · Ann.Rev.Nucl.Part.Sci.61:149-170,2011

This review summarizes exemplary secondary education and outreach programs of the particle physics community. We examine programs from the following areas: research experiences, high-energy physics data for students, informal learning for students, instructional resources, and professional development. We report findings about these programs' impact on students and teachers and provide suggestions for practices that create effective programs from those findings. We also include some methods for assessing programs.
