Description

This article looks at quantum physics from different perspectives with the aim of re­thin­k­ing the teaching of quantum physics with the additional goal of learning about the nature of science. The historical, the worldview and the mathematical-physical perspectives are put in relation to each other. In the contribution, we will examine how the historical formation of concepts and the mathematical formulation can help to localise the gap between classical physics and quantum physics and deal with it with the goal of learning about nature of science.
