Barron J. Montgomery; Argenta M. Price; Carl E. Wieman – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
A major goal of physics education is to develop strong problem-solving skills for students. To become expert problem solvers, students must have opportunities to deliberately practice those skills. In this work, we adopt a previously described definition of problem solving that consists of a set of 29 decisions made by expert scientists. We…
