As a retired teacher I cannot remember how the complex wave
equation
y=Aexp(i[kx-wt]) was first encountered in my own education.
Recently I
began to wonder how this would be introduced, anyway.
Accepting the
necessity of its use in QM, I wanted to ask how teachers today
related
this complex _expression_ to mind's-eye reality early in the
educational
process, or whether they would simply show the concept as a
math tool
to have practical applications later.
