Almost all introductory physics courses concentrate on concepts that were developed more than a hundred years ago. Scant attention is paid to ideas that involve complex behaviors. This emphasis on domains that are easily demonstrated in the laboratory has led to the use of physical models that may actual cripple students' ability to conceptualize non- Newtonian system. While we cannot simplify complicated ideas, we can make them understandable. The aim is to make quantum mechanics accessible to the intelligent, educated person. Interactive and graphically oriented sets of simulations related to quantum mechanics will be constructed exploiting the resources of the center for Astrophysics' scientific staff and its computer center. High school students of physics will be given powerful computer-tools to supplement real laboratory exercises. These simulations will permit students to carry out and analyze simulated laboratory experiments on topics that would be otherwise inaccessible to them. With the guidance of their teachers, students will be able to act as scientists and gain insight into science and its methods. Student misconceptions will be explored, and new ways to present modern material to high school students will be opened. Studies of student misconceptions will guide the development of further uses of advanced technology.

几乎所有的物理入门课程都集中在概念上， 是一百多年前发展起来的 很少有人注意到 涉及复杂行为的想法。 这种对领域的强调， 很容易在实验室中证明，这导致了物理 模型，可能实际上削弱学生的能力，概念化非 牛顿体系。 虽然我们无法简化复杂的想法，但我们可以 让他们理解。 目的是让量子力学 一个聪明的受过教育的人能接触到的。 互动和 与量子力学相关的图形化模拟集 将利用该中心的资源建造， 天体物理学的科研人员和计算机中心。 物理专业的高中生将获得强大的计算机工具， 补充真实的实验练习。 这些模拟将允许 学生进行和分析模拟实验室实验 否则他们无法接触到的话题。 为指导 他们的老师，学生将能够充当科学家，并获得 深入了解科学及其方法。 学生的误解将是 探索了新的方法，将现代材料呈现给高中 学生将被开放。 对学生误解的研究将指导 进一步利用先进技术的发展。
