Particle Builder A Board Game for the Teaching of the Standard Model of Particle Physics at a Secondary Level
Abstract
We present Particle Builder, an online board game which teaches students about concepts from the Standard Model of Particle Physics at a high school level. This short activity resulted in a gain of 0.16, indicating that students learned a significant amount of particle physics knowledge. Students found the activity was more engaging and less difficult than a normal classroom lesson.
