Description
For semester 6, students will be able to choose between 2 types of student project: (1) setting up a "Partenaires Scientifiques pour la Classe" (ASTEP) scheme, or (2) setting up a Data Acquisition and Processing (ATD) protocol. For the ASTEP project, students will carry out a scientific outreach project with kindergarten or primary school classes in the Hérault region (scientific themes defined by the partner schools). The students will then develop one or more experiments to be carried out with the classes, acquire data with the pupils and disseminate the scientific concepts to the pupils concerned. For the ATD project, students will have to propose a data acquisition protocol to answer a scientific question of their choice. This protocol could be carried out in the field, in the classroom or consist of a meta-analysis.
