1 Vision A community of researchers including faculty, postdoctoral, graduate and undergraduate students and high school teachers and high school students. AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

2 Location 929 N. Eddy Street, just south of campus.
A fully functional research lab. Serves CMS, DØ experiments. Houses office, lab spaces, and student experimental areas. SBIR program on scintillator development. Cosmic Ray Detector Development. AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

3 CMS / QuarkNet Lab 929 N. Eddy St
AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

4 Teacher and Student Immersion in Physics Research is Important.
QuarkNet is a national program that partners high school teachers and students with particle physicists working on experiments in hadron collider physics. AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

5 Working in close association with practitioners, teachers and students become immersed in the process of scientific research as it is actually performed, rather than being observers on the sidelines. AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

6 Why is the research experience valuable to High School Teachers?
How does participating in research impact teaching? How does the research experience impact students? AAPT, January Margaret A. Jensen, D.E. Gavit H.S. and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center

7 Who is involved? High School Teachers High School Students Physicists
