Abstract
International Masterclasses offered by QuarkNet give students a chance to engage in authentic particle physics data analysis. In the spring of 2020, most of the masterclasses had to be canceled. In order to still provide the opportunity for students to engage in authentic data analysis and interact with physicists, QuarkNet offered the Big Analysis of Muons in CMS (BAMC). Teacher and student experience with this simplified version of the traditional masterclass will be discussed, including experience with lessons that teachers could do remotely with students to prepare them for the data analysis, user-friendly online tools for the data analysis, the talk by a physicist to provide background, and the live discussion of the results. The BAMC allowed students to experience how large collaborations can work together to produce a result and to learn how some of the concepts they were discussing in class are applied in current physics research.
