Dunleavy, Spencer; Kestin, Greg; Callaghan, Kristina; McCarty, Logan; Deslauriers, Louis – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
The typical introductory physics lecture requires students to consolidate and assimilate a large quantity of complex information that is often novel to them. This can leave students overwhelmed, slow the pace of their learning, and lower their motivation. We find that carefully designed multimedia summaries in the form of one-minute videos and…

Cinite, Ilva; Barinovs, Girts – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2021
Education research has repeatedly shown that active learning in physics is pedagogically more efficient than traditional lecture courses. Widespread application of the active learning is slowed down by the lack of data on the performance of the active learning in widely varying circumstances of different educational systems. We measured the level…

Good, Melanie; Maries, Alexandru; Singh, Chandralekha – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
Over the course of instruction, not only does most introductory physics students' content knowledge evolve but their attitudes and approaches to problem solving are also likely to evolve. This change may depend on many factors including the curricula and pedagogies used, the degree to which instruction actively engages students in the learning…

Wheatley, Christopher; Wells, James; Pritchard, David E.; Stewart, John – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
The Force Concept Inventory (FCI) is a popular multiple-choice instrument used to measure a student's conceptual understanding of Newtonian mechanics. Recently, a network analytic technique called module analysis has been used to identify responses to the FCI and other conceptual instruments that are preferentially selected together by students;…
