   An extensive Study of Teaching / Learning Quantum Mechanics in College

   Bayram Akarsu · 2010 · Enseignement de la physique · Pas encore résumé

   Résumé scientifique

   Quantum physics is considered as one of the most remarkable discoveries of contemporary physics grown during previous century and gradually manifested to the scientific world such as inventions of laser, the transistor, the electron microscope, and semiconductor. Teaching of physical science has been stressed in the National Science Education Standards (NSES) from level K-12 as well as many state science standards (Gossard, 2000). The objectives of the current study are to investigate prospective elucidation of the most common learning difficulties, insufficient teaching strategies and other significant instructional or conceptual problems encountered by science and engineering college stude…

   Cooperative Problem Solving: an experience of high-school teaching updating

   Carlo Maria Carbonaro, Alessia Zurru, Viviana Fanti et al. · 2020 · Enseignement de la physique · Résumé IA disponible

   Résumé scientifique

   We present the results of an experience of teaching updating dispensed to Italian high-school physics teachers to promote the application of the Cooperative Problem Solving method as an useful strategy to improve physics learning at high-school level and to foster the development of problem solving skills. Beside analysing the method and discussing the ways to propose and apply it in a high-school context, the teachers experienced the method acting both as learners and as tutors of student group learners. Students and teachers evaluated as positive the experience, mainly focusing on cooperation within the group by information exchange and the application of a solution scheme. The ex-post ana…

   Instructional Strategies that Foster Effective Problem-Solving

   Chandralekha Singh, Alexandru Maries, Kenneth Heller et al. · 2023 · Enseignement de la physique · Résumé IA disponible

   Résumé scientifique

   Helping students become proficient problem solvers is a major goal of many physics courses from introductory to advanced levels. In fact, physics has often been used by cognitive scientists to investigate the differences between the problem-solving strategies of expert and novice problem solvers because it is a domain in which there is reasonably good agreement about what constitutes good problem-solving. Since the laws of physics are encapsulated in compact mathematical form, becoming an expert physics problem solver entails learning to unpack and interpret those physical laws as well as being able to apply them in diverse situations while solving problems. A physics expert must have a well…

   3rd grade English language learners making sense of sound

   Enrique Suarez, Valerie Otero · 2012 · Enseignement de la physique · Résumé IA disponible

   Résumé scientifique

   Despite the extensive body of research that supports scientific inquiry and argumentation as cornerstones of physics learning, these strategies continue to be virtually absent in most classrooms, especially those that involve students who are learning English as a second language. This study presents results from an investigation of 3rd grade students' discourse about how length and tension affect the sound produced by a string. These students came from a variety of language backgrounds, and all were learning English as a second language. Our results demonstrate varying levels, and uses, of experiential, imaginative, and mechanistic reasoning strategies. Using specific examples from students…

   Interactions between teaching assistants and students boost engagement in physics labs

   Jared B. Stang, Ido Roll · 2013 · Enseignement de la physique · Pas encore résumé

   Résumé scientifique

   Through in-class observations of teaching assistants (TAs) and students in the lab sections of a large introductory physics course, we study which TA behaviors can be used to predict student engagement and, in turn, how this engagement relates to learning. For the TAs, we record data to determine how they adhere to and deliver the lesson plan and how they interact with students during the lab. For the students, we use observations to record the level of student engagement and pre- and post-tests of lab skills to measure learning. We find that the frequency of TA-student interactions, especially those initiated by the TAs, is a positive and significant predictor of student engagement. Interes…

   Beyond teaching methods: highlighting physics faculty's strengths and agency

   Linda E. Strubbe, Adrian M. Madsen, Sarah B. McKagan et al. · 2019 · Phys. Rev. Phys. Educ. Res. 16, 020105 (2020) · Pas encore résumé

   Résumé scientifique

   Much work in physics education research (PER) characterizes faculty teaching practice in terms of whether faculty use specific named PER-based teaching methods, either with fidelity or with adaptation; we call this research paradigm the "teaching-method-centered paradigm." However, most faculty do not frame their teaching in terms of which particular named methods they use, but rather in terms of their own ideas and values, suggesting that the teaching-method-centered paradigm misses key features of faculty teaching. These key features include the productive ideas that faculty have about student learning and faculty agency around teaching. We present three case studies of faculty talking abo…

   Developing a custom GPT based on Inquiry Based Learning for Physics Teachers

   Dimitrios Gousopoulos · 2024 · Enseignement de la physique · Résumé IA disponible

   Résumé scientifique

   Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has emerged as a valuable assistant in many fields such as marketing, finance, project management, and education. In education, many GenAI tools have been developed to aid teachers in preparing proper educational material and offering personalized learning to their students, tailored to their educational needs. In this paper, we present a custom GPT (IBL Educator GPT) that is designed and developed based on Inquiry-based Learning and offers physics teachers a framework in which they can interact with ChatGPT and design educational strategies. The utilization of the IBL Educator GPT has led to an improvement in teachers' perspectives regarding the ad…

   Blended learning: A data-literate science teacher is a better teacher

   Jozef Hanč, Dominik Borovský, Martina Hančová · 2023 · Enseignement de la physique · Pas encore résumé

   Résumé scientifique

   The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of blended learning in contemporary physics and, more generally, STEM education. In this contribution, we summarize current pedagogical models of blended learning, such as rotational and flexible non-rotational models, and customizable configurations of physical and virtual learning spaces. With the inevitable integration of digital technology as one of the pillars of blended learning, teachers find themselves in an unprecedented position to not only obtain data more frequently but also analyze it and adjust instruction accordingly. Consequently, we discuss a crucial element of blended learning effectiveness: data management and usage. In …
