My name is Caroline Grandpré and I live in BEAUVAIS, Northern France, one hour away from PARIS and one hour from the seaside ( English CHANNEL ).
I teach Physics and Chemistry in the European classes of Félix FAURE high school ( pupils between 15 and 18 ). Here is the site of my school:
http://www.ac-amiens.fr/etablissements/0600001a/
" European classes" means that the pupils of these classes have some extra lessons of physics and chemistry in English, beside their usual scientific courses in French. After passing an oral exam, they get the "baccalauréat" with a European mention.
I am involved in teachers' training and contribute to develop new experimental technologies in teaching physics. I publish some of my work on the national site:
http://www.ac-amiens.fr/pedagogie/spc/ ( lycée - terminale )
I am interessed in didactics, and in particular, how physics and chemistry are taught all over Europe. For my research, I am looking for European school books ( GCSE or A. Level - Abitur... ), in English, French or German.
I am happy to take part to the CERN program for HST, which seems to be marvellous ! I am impatient to learn more about particle physics, to meet the other participants, and perhaps to find parterns to set a European project within school exchanges...
Otherwise, I like cycling, swimming, cooking, camping, travelling and meeting people !
