Description
Physics Education Research (PER) requires data collection from systems that are usually not confined to a lab - humans. A conference is a unique opportunity to question not only individual physicists, but to initiate and observe interactions. In this experiment, we will prepare our systems (the audience) with a brief introduction on known misconceptions in quantum mechanics. Then, we will collect data from individuals about their own experiences with those misconceptions as instructor and/or student. Based on the initial responses, we will assign the participants to specific groups to further explore and refine their responses. Then we will collect the results and discuss next steps.
