PHYS 3220 - Quantum I

Materials Archive Overview

At CU Boulder, we are just starting on a long term project to help transform (in perhaps small but important ways) our upper division undergraduate Quantum I course to make better use of ideas and materials from the PER community.

In this folder, you will find a number of materials we have borrowed or developed. Feel free to use what you like - we would like to share materials, but also believe in giving credit to sources whenever possible.

You can download the latest version of these materials at
http://www.colorado.edu/sei/departments/physics_3220.htm

If you want the course materials including assessments and exams, email us.

We transformed this course using:

  • Explicit Learning Goals
  • Interactive Lectures
  • Transformed Homework problems
  • Common Student Difficulties & In-Class Group Activities
  • Concept Tests ("Clicker" questions) - download here

Assessments given in the course include:

  • Traditional exams
  • A new research-based conceptual assessment (the Quantum Mechanics Assessment Tool or QMAT)
