nature of the approached concepts presented both in physics and calculus books.For the physics examples, building since the beginning the idea of a vector component relative tovelocity is of an extreme importance, while for the calculus book it is not mentioned until later.Further observations on how each of the concepts around the idea of velocity are used during awhole class structure should be made. For example, with graphic representations made underboth mathematical and physical background. While both approaches may seem similar, seriousmatters are provoked.An example, often found in the classroom, happens when you ask students which object has ahigher velocity, one traveling at 5 m/s or one traveling at -5 m/s.

Note thatMermin subsequently “revisits” and “refines” this discussion with thought experiments that donot require perfect correlations between the particles.7,8 In our modern language we would saythat the “things” that traverse the path from transmitter to receiver have undergone “quantumentanglement.” Schroeder points out that the word entanglement was first introduced bySchrödinger in 1935 but has been virtually absent from publication until the 1980’s.9Dirac Notation – Vectors and Operators/MatricesPaul Dirac introduced a new mathematical notation to describe quantum mechanics that

generalpopulation.The revised instrument and methodologies were employed with a larger sample of approximately120 of American University’s undergraduate students in late fall 2017. The data collected fromthe larger study are presently being analyzed and will be presented in a future full paper. Wehope that the revised survey instrument will be adapted for use by other physics and STEMeducators so that additional comparisons across an even wider range of student populations canbe made.References[1] S.
