This study presents a review of the current state of research on teaching quantum mechanics in secondary and lower undergraduate education. A conceptual approach to quantum mechanics is being implemented in more and more introductory…

We argue here for a more conceptual or qualitative approach in the introductory teaching of Quantum Physics which is built on the basis of epistemological and ontological discussions and as such is a valuable tool mainly in the initial and…

The advantage of attosecond measurements is the possibility of time-resolving ultrafast quantum phenomena of electron dynamics. Many such measurements are of interferometric nature, and therefore give access to the phase. Likewise, weak…

Although developing proficiency with modeling is a nationally endorsed learning outcome for upper-division undergraduate physics lab courses, no corresponding research-based assessments exist. Our longterm goal is to develop assessments of…

We have developed the Physics Inventory of Quantitative Literacy (PIQL) as a tool to measure students' quantitative literacy in the context of introductory physics topics. We present the results from various quantitative analyses used to…

I investigate the scattering properties of transformation devices as the traditional impedance matching criteria are altered. This is demonstrated using simple theory and augmented by numerical simulations that investigate the role of…

Recently, the academic community has been giving much attention to Cooperative Learning System, a group learning method combined with pedagogy and social psychology. It allows group members to gain knowledge through collaborations and…

When talking to secondary school students, first impressions are crucial. Accidentally say something that sounds boring and you'll lose them in seconds. A physical demonstration can be an eye-catching way to begin an activity or spark off a…

A major aspect in power line distribution networks is the constant monitoring of the network properties. With the advent of the smart grid concept, distributed monitoring has started complementing the information of the central stations. In…

Access to quality education remains a global challenge, particularly in crisis-affected regions. This study examines the decline in students' mathematical proficiency and proposes an innovative Moodle-based testing system that incorporates…

Instruction in quantum mechanics is becoming increasingly important as the field is not only a key part of modern physics research, but is also important for emerging technologies. However, many students regard quantum mechanics as a…

In many applications, one needs to learn a dynamical system from its solutions sampled at a finite number of time points. The learning problem is often formulated as an optimization problem over a chosen function class. However, in the…

This chapter introduces the main ideas and the most important methods for representing the electronic wavefunction through machine learning models. The wavefunction of a N-electron system is an incredibly complicated mathematical object,…

Virtual Reality (VR) is increasingly being recognized for its educational potential and as an effective way to convey new knowledge to people, it supports interactive and collaborative activities. Affordable VR powered by mobile…

The use of World Web Wide for distance education has received increasing attention over the past decades. The real challenge of adapting this technology for engineering education and training is to facilitate the laboratory experiments via…

Reinforcement learning has received significant interest in recent years, due primarily to the successes of deep reinforcement learning at solving many challenging tasks such as playing Chess, Go and online computer games. However, with the…

Performing machine learning with analog signals offers advantages in speed and energy efficiency, but sensitivity to component and measurement imperfections often foils training without a system-specific companion digital model. Here we…

Inertial motion analysis is having a growing interest during the last decades due to its advantages over classical optical systems. The technological solution based on inertial measurement units allows the measurement of movements in daily…
