6. R. Ruchti DPF2006 30 October 2006 Partnerships – Formal Education Experimental Reality –LHC: 15 yrs from inception to data taking –25-yr old grad student now was a 10-yr old then. –Need to work back in the education process to reach for students – future scientists. Focus on reaching teachers and including them as partners in the scientific process. Take an active interest in student preparation. Provide teacher and student research opportunities.

7. R. Ruchti DPF2006 30 October 2006 Responses to the Educational Challenge Some Examples Local –Your Place Community –CHEPREO Regional –MARIACHI State –CROP National –QuarkNet –I2U2 International –NALTA –CHEPREO –COSM

8. R. Ruchti DPF2006 30 October 2006 Regional - Mariachi Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays are nuclei that have been accelerated to kinetic energies in excess of 10 20 eV. Where do they come from? How are they produced? Are they survivors of the early universe? Are they remnants of supernovas? MARIACHI, a unique collaboration between scientists, physics teachers and students, is developing an innovative technique to detect and study them.
