Demystifying the Lagrangians of special relativity
Gerd Wagner, Matthew W. Guthrie
Special relativity beyond its basic treatment can be inaccessible, in particular because introductory physics courses typically view special relativity as decontextualized from the…
Toward more accurate measurement of the impact of online instructional design on students' ability to transfer physics problem-solving skills
Kyle M. Whitcomb, Matthew W. Guthrie, Chandralekha Singh +1
In two earlier studies, we developed a new method to measure students' ability to transfer physics problem solving skills to new contexts using a sequence of online learning module…
Demystifying the Lagrangian formalism for field theories
Gerd Wagner, Matthew W. Guthrie
This paper expands on previous work to derive and motivate the Lagrangian formulation of field theories. In the process, we take three deliberate steps. First, we give the definiti…
Exploring the relation between students' online learning behavior and course performance by including contextual information in data analysis
Zhongzhou Chen, Mengyu Xu, Geoffrey Garrido +1
This study examines whether including more contextual information in data analysis could improve our ability to identify the relation between students' online learning behavior and…
Demystifying the Lagrangian of classical mechanics
Gerd Wagner, Matthew W. Guthrie
The Lagrangian formulation of classical mechanics is widely applicable in solving a vast array of physics problems encountered in the undergraduate and graduate physics curriculum.…
Measuring the Effectiveness of Learning Resources Via Student Interaction with Online Learning Modules
Zhongzhou Chen, Matthew Guthrie
We present a new method for measuring the effectiveness of online learning resources, through the analysis of time-stamped log data of students' interaction with a sequence of onli…
