Scientific paper

The European Particle Physics Outreach Group (EPPOG) developed the Masterclass in 2004 to bring particle physics to high school classrooms in Europe. They put real data on a website (http://wyp.teilchenphysik.org/mc.htm) from the Large Electron-Positron (LEP) collider at CERN. Students analyze this data and draw conclusions at their schools. They then compare their results with those found at other schools in Masterclass live video conferences hosted by CERN over the internet.
In March 2004, six students at Ward Melville High School on Long Island were sponsored by QuarkNet and Brookhaven National Laboratory to become the first U.S. team to participate in the EPPOG Masterclass. The Ward Melville group was positive about the experience and their results tracked well with those of their colleagues in the video conference from high schools in Greece, Slovakia, and Poland.
