Citizen Cyberlab: a new project accepted by the European Union
Dear all, A few months ago we asked you for opinions on ways to combine projects like T4T with online learning (http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/test4theory/forum_thread.php?id=709&nowrap=true#8224). Your feedback was really useful for preparing a funding proposal on this theme, and it's a pleasure to announce that the proposed project, called Citizen Cyberlab, has been accepted by the European Commission. The project will involve a number of institutions in London, Paris and Geneva, including CERN – you can read more about it in the first comment of this post (http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/test4theory/forum_thread.php?id=925&nowrap=true#10730). A specific goal for CERN in the project will be to build an educational game based on LHC@home. The project should start by the end of this year. However, we plan to start improving the links between LHC@home and online education already this summer, in a collaboration between Peer-to-Peer University (P2PU) and the Citizen Cyberscience Centre. I look forward to telling you more about that when the project kicks off in June. Best Regards, The team!
