It has more flexibility and results in a higher quality video than simply recording your screen on zoom/skype.
It is easy to install and much easier to use than any video editing software.
Use the following four resources to help you:
1. **Introduction to OBS** and how it can be used.
2. Tips for good **video layout** (this is useful regardless of whether you chose to use OBS).
3. Links to **OBS download instructions** for Mac, Windows & Linux.
4. How you could **include live annotations** or a blackboard style presentation with OBS

As a teacher, you can link a JupyterHub instance to your course that runs on our e-learning servers.
The JupyterHub instance runs as a docker container that is launched when a student clicks on the link.
The container will clone your chosen github repository where you can edit and store Jupyter notebooks.
Students will be able to open these Jupyter notebooks and execute them remotely.
Crucially students do not require Jupyter to be installed on their computers or have prior knowledge of python.
Examples where this might be useful:
- Show students how to **reduce** and **analyse** experimental data themselves using **python**.
- Introduce students to **python modules** or **software** used in data reduction and analysis.
- Allow students to **virtually explore** large scale facility instruments. For example by using **McStas** (neutron instrument simulator).
- Teach students **data modelling** and **simulation** techniques that use **python**.
**Requirements:**
What the student will interact with must be in the form of a **Jupyter notebook**.
Your notebooks must be on a public **github repository**.
Note that the **entire repository** you provide will be **cloned** not just selected notebooks. However it does not have to be the master branch.
Our containers already include common scientific python modules such as numpy, matplotlib and ipython.
In addition we have containers with the following software installed:
1. McStas, McXtrace, SCIPP, SasVIew
2. Crispy
3. SimEx
If you require a container with other software to be installed it is possible to have a custom container created.
Please email admin@pan-learning.org for help.
**Useful Links:**
- **[Jupyter notebooks](https://jupyter.org/)**
- [**What is a docker container**?](https://www.docker.com/resources/what-container)(and the **[wiki page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docker_(software))**)
- [**Docker and Jupyterhub**](https://hub.docker.com/r/jupyterhub/jupyterhub/#help-and-resources)
If you wish to include a link to a Jupyterhub container for your course.
Please fill the form: Information to set up your container
Once you have filled in the form you will receive an email to let you know the JupyterHub link is being set up and any further instructions that are required.
Please note it may take a few days to be up and running.

The notebooks can accessed and run via the [Jupyter hub](https://jhubworkshop.esss.dk/hub/home) link. A new window will open, which will ask you to **Start My Server**.
You can then chose which environment you would like to use (Basic Jupyter with McStas or Jupyter with SCIPP). Note that both include all the notebooks.
To access the notebooks please navigate to **python-course-ikon** \> **notebooks**.

https://pan-training.eu/materials/e-neutrons-for-teachers
This set of manuals is intended to help developers/teachers on the e-neutrons portal make and improve online material that can be used for learning about neutron scattering.
In sum, they represent both some of the experiences we have had with making online learning material for the e-neutrons portal and the choices we have made regarding how to make an e-learning portal. Many of these choices differ from choices made when conducting massive open online courses (MOOCs).
Our design choices are based on educational research, and we pay a lot of attention to what the goals for the portal and for each learning activity are. In particular, we have used research literature on digital learning, on assessment for learning, and on intended learning outcomes. We seek to align our online activities and the way we assess them with intended learning outcomes. Since the goal for the portal is not to provide users with a formal set of papers on how well they have performed, we have chosen not to provide students with traditional summative assessment such as grading or other performance evaluators. Rather, we have chosen to focus on providing high quality feedback to facilitate that students engage as much as possible with the learning material.
The e-neutrons portal itself is an object of ongoing e-learning. Thus, we actively use student interactions with the portal to investigate more broadly how this type of e-learning works.

Imaging with neutrons has seen strong development in the past two decades, driven by the rapid improvements in digital cameras and the ability to use the properties of the neutron to generate a variety of image contrasts. This webinar will give an overview of the start of the NIST neutron imaging program and how measurements have been augmented with a simultaneous X-ray source. Discussion will focus on the current state of the art in neutron microscopy, and the outlook for the field with the nearly completed first neutron equivalent to Hooke’s microscope with lens based on Wolter optics.

Neutrons for Magnetic Nanostructures on Surfaces: Beyond the Specular Intensity Wars
Polarized Neutron Reflectometry (PNR) is a great method to study magnetism of surface near structures on the nm scale. It is especially useful for functional materials and fundamentals of nano magnetism. The applications of the technique and the related grazing incidence scattering include...

Polarized Neutron Reflectometry (PNR) is a great method to study magnetism of surface near structures on the nm scale. It is especially useful for functional materials and fundamentals of nano magnetism. The applications of the technique and the related grazing incidence scattering include multiferroic heterostructures, correlated electron systems, exchange bias, superconductors, magnetic nanoparticles and spin textures like skyrmions. Many of these systems have in common that the sample sizes are small, leading to intensity limited experiments. [...]

Enter the world of neutrons! They are a powerful and highly acclaimed tool not only for the study of condensed matter (the world we live in) but also for confirming our current understanding of physics. What's more, you don't even need to be a scientist to use Neutrons4Science. Just be curious!
Neutrons and protons are elementary particles constituting the nucleus of atoms. The neutron has no electric charge but has a spin and a magnetic moment. Neutron beams - like beams of X-rays, electrons or muons - are valuable tools for studying the multitude of materials that surround us in our daily lives (alloys, magnets, superconductors, polymers, colloids, proteins, biological systems, …). However, the way neutrons interact with matter is quite unique and, as a result, it can often reveal to us what is normally hidden. With Neutrons4Science you can discover one of the many types of neutron spectroscopy.
The neutron also answers questions on the very foundations of physics, helping us to solve some of the great mysteries of the universe (Is the Grand Unified Theory valid? Is there a fifth fundamental force? ...) As an example, Neutrons4Science gives you insights to a brand new method of neutron spectroscopy that takes advantage of the quantum states of this light neutral particle.
Neutrons4Science lets you experience neutron science through three interactive 3D animations:
• ThALES: Use a neutron spectrometer (ILL ThALES) as if you were performing a real experiment.
• Magnons: Discover the spin waves that exist inside magnetic materials and understand how ThALES can observe them.
• GRANIT: Discover an innovative gravitational spectrometer (ILL GRANIT) based on neutron quantum states in a gravitational field.
These three educational animations were developed with the help of scientists at the "Institut Laue-Langevin", one of the world's flagship facilities for neutron science.
This project was funded by the ILL and the LPSC and developed by Ipter (out of business since 2015).
