Abstract. This is the second of two papers focusing on the quantum atomic model `Electronium'. The `Bremen teaching approach', in which this model is used, is outlined and an analysis of the learning of two students as they progress through the teaching unit is presented. Finally an argument is presented to support the assertion that the Electronium model can be considered to be a successful teaching tool.
