Comparing Students performance in QM between China and US
written by
Jue Wang and Guangtian Zhu
This paper discusses a comparative study on American and Chinese students' conceptual understanding of quantum mechanics. We administered the Quantum Mechanics Survey (QMS) to over 400 undergraduate students from 10 universities in China and the United States. The results showed that students in American universities performed better than their Chinese peers on the QMS.
