| Abstract Title: | A Collective Exploration of Physics Beyond the Classroom. |
|---|---|
| Abstract: | This talk will explore learning physics beyond the classroom, laboratory, and lecture hall. Grounded in our collective experience of running, or participating in, informal physics programmes, and scholarship from this emerging sub-discipline, I hope to construct, with your help, goals and questions that we might engage with over the PERC meeting. To that end, the session will be an active one. In advance of this session, you may like to reflect on informal physics programmes you have participated in, or led. In doing so, consider your motivations, the practices and community of people involved. Think, too, about how they may have affected you. During the session, you'll be invited to discuss, in small groups, your experiences of those programmes. I hope we can build on these to co-construct community-level ideas, concerns, goals, etc. around informal learning. |
