Perimeter Institute Education Video on Quantum Physics

Quantum physics is arguably the single most important theory in all of physics. It describes the subatomic world with unprecedented insight and accuracy.  This presentation gives you a sneak peak at a new educational resource on quantum physics for Grade 12's produced by Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. Due for release in the summer, it includes a professionally produced educational video and accompanying student worksheets. The video includes real footage of an authentic two-slit experiment performed with electrons and focuses on the concept of wave-particle duality.

Dave Fish and Greg Dick have over 30 years of physics teaching and resource development between them. They both teach in the Waterloo Region District School Board and have collaborated on several projects with Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. They have spent their careers developing innovative, researched-based, resources and strategies to help teachers help their students learn physics.
