Impact of a course transformation on students' reasoning about measurement uncertainty
Benjamin Pollard, Alexandra Werth, Robert Hobbs +1
Physics lab courses are integral parts of an undergraduate physics education, and offer a variety of opportunities for learning. Many of these opportunities center around a common…
What is interdisciplinarity? Views from students and professors in a non-major intro physics course
Ian Descamps, Thomas Moore, Benjamin Pollard
We present an investigation into the interdisciplinary role of physics in a physics-for-non-physicists course at Pomona College. This work is guided by prior research into introduc…
Using think-aloud interviews to characterize model-based reasoning in electronics for a laboratory course assessment
Laura Ríos, Benjamin Pollard, Dimitri R. Dounas-Frazer +1
Models of physical systems are used to explain and predict experimental results and observations. The Modeling Framework for Experimental Physics describes the process by which phy…
