Burkholder, Eric W.; Murillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel; Wieman, Carl – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Previous work has looked at the relationship between high school preparation and student performance in calculus-based introductory mechanics (physics 1) courses. Here, we extend that work to look at performance in introductory calculus-based electricity and magnetism (physics 2), and we look at the significance of what college math courses have…

Padayachee, Pragashni; Campbell, Anita L. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Recreating the social aspects of face-to-face teaching in an online environment became more challenging in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. With limited or no face-to-face interaction with students, lecturers had to explore alternative ways to recreate aspects of an engaging and supportive face-to-face learning environment. This article focuses…

Bollen, Laurens; van Kampen, Paul; De Cock, Mieke – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2015
Understanding Maxwell's equations in differential form is of great importance when studying the electrodynamic phenomena discussed in advanced electromagnetism courses. It is therefore necessary that students master the use of vector calculus in physical situations. In this light we investigated the difficulties second year students at KU Leuven…

Clarkson, P. C. – 1983
Descriptions of Papua New Guinea's national high schools, grade 12 major/minor mathematics courses, and an analysis of the 1980 and 1981 major/minor course examination results are presented. The analysis is intended for use by post year 12 lecturers/instructors planning their courses. Findings indicate that topic scores were far too low for these…
