Curated OER
Understanding: Uncertainty
Students discuss the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and how it applies to the subatomic world. Working in groups, they design a model that would help others to understand the uncertainty principle. Written explanations are included...

Modern Physics, QM
In this physics worksheet, students examine the theory of quantum mechanics through the answering of the nine questions. The answers are accessed through the links by each question.
Curated OER
Atomic Structure and Quantum Theory
Pupils are introduced to the structure of an atom and Dalton's atomic theory through a short video and mini-lecture. They also take a look at the weight of mass and become familiar with the idea of quantum theory
Curated OER
Physicists or Philosophers?
Trace the sequential process of the developing theories of atomic structure in the early 20th century, show, in historical development, how scientists "know" things, how experiments are set up and how interpretations are drawn from them,...
