00:00:04,212 --> 00:00:05,420
PROFESSOR GUNTHER ROLAND: OK.

2
00:00:05,420 --> 00:00:08,334
What is really unique in Junior
Lab compared to any other class

3
00:00:08,334 --> 00:00:10,120
that you could
think about teaching

4
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:15,250
is the breadth both in terms of
the material, the techniques,

5
00:00:15,250 --> 00:00:18,880
and the concepts that
you try to get across.

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,610
From the specific physics
of the experiments

7
00:00:21,610 --> 00:00:24,820
to sort of general tools
of experimentalists,

8
00:00:24,820 --> 00:00:28,060
both in terms of apparatus
and in terms of computing,

9
00:00:28,060 --> 00:00:30,100
in terms of the
mathematical tools,

10
00:00:30,100 --> 00:00:33,530
understanding systematic
uncertainties.

11
00:00:33,530 --> 00:00:38,530
Then the communication
elements from how

12
00:00:38,530 --> 00:00:40,360
to write a paper,
how to give a talk,

13
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,010
how to prepare a poster, to sort
of a very general sort of life

14
00:00:45,010 --> 00:00:48,330
skills, like time management,
which really is critical

15
00:00:48,330 --> 00:00:51,160
as you do this sequence
of experiments.

16
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:52,840
The collaboration
with their partners,

17
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,360
which is something that many
of them haven't experienced.

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:00,100
So Junior Lab really covers
many different aspects and one

19
00:01:00,100 --> 00:01:02,090
has to really think
about which are the ones

20
00:01:02,090 --> 00:01:07,040
that one wants to emphasize
as a lecturer in the lab.

21
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:11,140
And I think it also is important
to really keep things fresh

22
00:01:11,140 --> 00:01:14,870
and try to innovate
something every year.

23
00:01:14,870 --> 00:01:18,580
A new experiment, new
elements, just to really keep

24
00:01:18,580 --> 00:01:22,500
the experience up to date.
