Flipping Honours Quantum
This project will utilise the edge.edX platform to 'flip' the Physics Honours Quantum course. Students across all disciplines need to learn the requisite background theory and, critically,how to apply this theory to solve problems. Unfortunately, students typically receive far fewer contact hours devoted to application than content. By moving all lecture content online,students will be able to access the course content at their convenience,and academic contact hours can be more effectively utilised guiding students through challenging and open-ended problems. This project will make use of experience and lessons learned from flipping the third year Theoretical Physics course.
