Session D-6: Teaching Modern Physics, Peter Dong
Session D-6: Teaching Modern Physics, Peter Dong
Professional Learning Day
Modern physics is an excellent way to get students interested in physics – the “weirdness” of relativity and quantum mechanics captures the imagination. This presentation discusses how to teach the subject in a way that encourages this interest. This year’s session will focus on teaching quantum mechanics in a way that is interesting to students and avoids common misconceptions.
