I will present our experience with the production, recording, and publication of a series of 15 short outreach videos about Particle Physics, in Brazilian Portuguese, in the format of Instagram reels. The videos cover different aspects of our research work at the University of Sao Paulo (Brazil), where I lead a group dedicated to QCD and Particle Physics. We produced videos with different...
Going through an incredible amount of change right now in preparation for the Hi-Lumi phase of CMS, it is very important to make sure all the work of the collaboration is captured in audiovisual media. To do this for a collaboration of over 6000 people across 250 institutes is a large challenge, but it is essential for future-proofing the history of CMS. In fact, there is more audiovisual...
Introducing elementary particles to science and engineering students (non-physics majors), poses both a challenge and an opportunity. The challenge lies in the inherently limited scope of the topic, which is usually taught as part of an elective modern physics course. The opportunity lies in being able to share the beauty of our subject with people who are motivated to learn and tend to focus...
Since 2022, IPPOG has adapted its successful International Masterclasses (IMC) to involve CERN’s non-scientific personnel. These sessions offer an accessible introduction to particle physics for colleagues in administration, communication and other non-research departments, helping them connect with CERN’s core mission.
Following the positive response to the first edition, further sessions...
It is more important than ever to not only have a diverse community within science, but to show it to those outside who provide support and resources, as well as to young people hoping to make a career in this field. Allowing our audiences to see themselves reflected in members of our community, or to aspire to people we show them is a powerful way of connecting to them. In this poster, we, as...
AI nowadays is a new tool that seems to be everywhere including education. It brings convenience but also concerns - the two largest concerns with using AI by instructors are the safety of students’ data and the AI lack of the specific knowledge needed in a specific class. The data safety can be addressed by using a locally run large language models model using Ollama framework, a free tool...
