Abstract
Interactive lecture tutorials can help sophomore physics students understand of the difference between superposition states and mixed states that is needed for more advanced quantum mechanics classes.
期刊介绍:
Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research (PRST-PER) is a peer reviewed electronic-only journal sponsored by The American Physical Society (APS), the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) and the APS Forum on Education. The journal covers the full range of experimental and theoretical research on the teaching and/or learning of physics. PRST-PER is distributed without charge and financed by publication charges to the authors or to the authors" institutions. The criteria for acceptance of articles include the high scholarly and technical standards of our other Physical Review journals.
