Cascade Outreach Competitions Efficient and enjoyable way to inform and engage many students with Particle Physics Lynne Long Peter Watkins University of Birmingham, UK Acknowledgements to STFC and many colleagues who contributed

Groups of students Produce presentations for other students about Particle Physics Teamwork to prepare and deliver a performance together (20 mins) Enhances their knowledge and communication skills without too much researcher/teacher time Inspires other students – ‘Cascade’ knowledge/interest

Cascade Live Launched national competition Judged on video of the talk and content Finals day -- presentations at University Major and Minor prizes Many innovative demos and styles Resources about Cascade on web
