The Visual Quantum Mechanics project is developing instructional materials about quantum physics for high school and college students. Instructional units and/or courses are being created for high school and college non-science students, pre-medical and biology students, and science and engineering majors. Each set of the teaching-learning materials integrates interactive visualizations with inexpensive materials and written documents in an activity-based environment.

The original Visual Quantum Mechanics project developed materials for high school students and for non-science college students. Teaching-learning materials for science and engineering students who have complete a two-semester calculus-based physics course.

Interactive Engagements for use in an upper-level undergraduate quantum mechanics course are now in development. Some materials are available for testing. Using contemporary medical diagnosis tools as motivation the project is creating a course in modern physics for students interested in medicine and the biological sciences.
