Γεφυρώνοντας το χάσμα ανάμεσα στην έρευνα και την εκπαίδευση: Το πρόγραμμα μNET και η δευτεροβάθμια εκπαίδευση στην Ελλάδα

Abstract

The μΝet (microNet) project aims to deploy and operate an extensive school network of educational cosmic ray (C.R.) telescopes in Greece. As part of the μNet project, an extended educational program will be conducted, focusing on the construction, testing, and operation of a C.R. Telescope, as well as the remote operation of C.R. detection stations and Astroparticle physics detectors deployed at the Hellenic Open University campus. 2022–2023 school year, was the first year operation of the program, engaging 500 students and 75 science teachers from all over Greece. The high school teachers and students were trained to the experimental procedures of C.R. physics using distance learning methods. A summary of the methodology followed, the tools developed, and the main conclusions of the program's first year of operation will be presented.
