CMS Masterclass 2: Discovering the Higgs Boson with Python Notebooks and CMS OpenData — •Christian Winter, Artur Monsch, Cedric Verstege, and Günter Quast — ETP, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany

The current CMS Masterclass focuses on the graphical analysis of event displays to teach how analyses work in high-energy physics. This Talk focuses on the experience on executing a new CMS Masterclass. In this CMS Masterclass the students use Python Notebooks and CMS OpenData to reconstruct the Higgs discovery channel H→ ZZ → 4 ℓ and measure the significance of their findings. This Masterclass was carried out for the second time as part of a week-long Science Camp for High School students, which focused on astro-/particle physics. Together with the experience gathered, improvements and the frame for such a Masterclass will be discussed. The possibility for other collaborations to have a simmilar Masterclass will be adressed, too.
