QuarkNet Workshop for High School Teachers

6 Jul 2021, 08:45 → 9 Jul 2021, 12:00 US/Eastern

Virtual

Cecire Kenneth (University of Notre Dame), Ketevi Adikle Assamagan (BNL)

Join us for the 2021 QuarkNet workshop. Each day will start with a presentation/talk on some interesting aspect of Physics (neutrinos, quantum computing, machine learning). Following the talk, we will work through programming with Python, with a final goal of analyzing a large data set of real world neutrino data. The workshop will be held 9:00 am - noon July 6-9, and will be fully virtual. 

Requirements: internet access, zoom-compatible computer, a Google email account. Participants who are currently active teachers will receive a (small) stipend for the week. Retirees are welcome, but unfortunately won't receive a stipend.
