Quantum mechanics instruction has remained relatively unchanged for at least 75 years, following a coordinate-space-based formalism that requires significant class time for instruction on the mathematical background for the Frobenius method, delta functions, Fourier transforms, and the like. This mathematics instruction greatly limits the amount of physics that can be included. In this talk, I...
In this presentation, I will first give a brief introduction to my research stream which concentrates on particle physics within UMD's First-Year Innovation & Research Experience (FIRE) program. I will, then, highlight two of the collaborative online tools I have used during the pandemic virtual-learning as part of my synchronous meetings. I have used these tools both for community building as...
The Remote Experience for Young Engineers and Scientists [REYES - https://odu.edu/reyes] is a free global program aimed to increase science literacy, inspire and train the next generation of scientists. This inclusive program, which has close to 8 thousand registrants from over 100 countries, is making science accessible to help diversify the future STEM pipeline. In this talk, I will review...
