  • Waving Arms to Teach & Learn Quantum Mechanics

    Creator:
    Hahn, Kelby T.
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation I explore the Arms representation and activities for teaching quantum mechanics invented at Oregon State University. In the Arms representation students embody quantum states. The Arms activities are presented as an exemplar of the unique physics classroom culture of the upper-division Paradigms in Physics program. In the...

  • Students' Understanding of Discrete and Continuous Systems in Quantum Mechanics and Computation's Supporting Role

    Creator:
    Solorio, Christian D.
    Abstract:
    Quantum mechanics is increasingly being taught with a spins-first approach where instructors use simple spin systems to introduce the principles of quantum mechanics rather than systems with wavefunctions. One of the defining characteristics of a spins-first approach is that systems studied have discrete bases, whereas systems with wavefunctions have continuous...
