摘要:

量子力学很难学,因为它违反直觉,难以想象,数学上具有挑战性,而且抽象。物理教育技术(PhET)项目以其用于教学和学习物理的交互式计算机模拟而闻名,现在包括18个量子力学模拟,旨在改善这一困难学科的学习。我们的模拟包括几个关键功能,以帮助学生建立关于量子力学的心理模型和直觉:抽象概念和微观过程的可视化表示无法直接观察到,交互式环境直接将学生的动作与动画,日常生活的连接以及有效的计算相结合,因此学生可以专注于概念而不是数学。这些是根据教育研究的结果和教育工作者的反馈制定的,并在学生访谈和课堂研究中进行了测试。本文综述了PhET量子模拟及其发展。我们还描述了研究证明他们的有效性,并分享了一些见解,我们已经从我们的研究量子模拟的学生思想。

英文摘要:

Quantum mechanics is difficult to learn because it is counterintuitive, hard to visualize, mathematically challenging, and abstract. The Physics Education Technology (PhET) Project, known for its interactive computer simulations for teaching and learning physics, now includes 18 simulations on quantum mechanics designed to improve learning of this difficult subject. Our simulations include several key features to help students build mental models and intuitions about quantum mechanics: visual representations of abstract concepts and microscopic processes that cannot be directly observed, interactive environments that directly couple students' actions to animations, connections to everyday life, and efficient calculations so students can focus on the concepts rather than the math. Like all PhET simulations, these are developed using the results of education research and feedback from educators, and are tested in student interviews and classroom studies. This article provides an overview of the PhET quantum simulations and their development. We also describe research demonstrating their effectiveness and share some insights about student thinking that we have gained from our research on quantum simulations.
