授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | This is a companion course for the Quantum Mechanics I lecture course. Students who enrol in QM1 should also enrol in this course.
Quantum mechanics governs the microscopic aspects of nature and is more fundamental than classical mechanics which is an approximate effective theory describing the macroscopic aspects of nature. This course aims to develop in students a solid understanding and basic knowledge of quantum mechanics, which is absolutely necessary in various fields of modern physics.
Tutorials will held fortnightly. |

成績評価の方法と基準
Course Evaluation Method and Criteria | | | Fortnightly assignments handed out by the QM1 lecturer; tutorial grades are determined by attendance; class participation; weekly oral presentation of solutions to assignments. Assignments: 80%; Tutorial Performance: 20% |
|
|
不可(F)と欠席(W)の基準
Criteria for "Fail (F)" & "Absent (W)" grades | | The "Absent (W)" grade is reserved for students who withdraw by the official deadline in May. After that day, a letter grade will be awarded based on marks earned from all assessment during the semester.
If Electricity and Magnetism I and this tutorial course are NOT A COMPULSORY SUBJECT and the student plans never to take Electricity and Magnetism I and this tutorial course in the future, then a late withdrawal request will be considered. |

課外学習等（授業時間外学習の指示）
Study Load(Self-directed Learning Outside Course Hours) | | This course is part of your training to be a professional researcher. You are expected to revise the lecture notes, read and work through the textbook, and solve assignment problems outside lecture hours. You cannot learn physics by only attending lectures. The exams will consist of questions covering both lecture notes and assignments.
Students must be willing to work hard if they want to achieve a good, internationally competitive level.
Consultation with, or help from, the lecturer will be available online using MS Teams or other media such as email. |

注意事項
Notice for Students | | Plagiarism (e.g. copying solutions that you have found on the Internet) is an act of academic dishonesty. Cheating in exams (e.g. having lecture notes, assignment solutions or online references open on your computer screen during an online exam) is a serious offence. Copying other people's solutions and claiming them as your own is also an act of academic dishonesty. Nagoya University has a strict policy towards academic dishonesty:
"Acts of academic dishonesty are prohibited during exams, for reports and assignments. If acts of academic dishonesty are discovered, you may be subject to discipline, which may affect your ability to graduate on time."
The punishment for serious breaches (such as cheating in an exam or repeated plagiarism despite a warning) is the loss of all grades from all subjects during the semester and cancellation of any scholarships received.
Even if your course is difficult and it is to be expected that you'll find it hard to finish assignments, it is far better that you submit an honest effort than take the dishonest path. Remember, to be on course for a "B" you only need to score over 70% in the assignments -- and if you paid attention in the tutorials, you would have seen nearly all the problems done for you (in my subjects, at least).
There's no excuse for cheating. |
