Identifying Covariational Reasoning Behaviors in Expert Physicists in Graphing Tasks

Charlotte Zimmerman, Alexis Olsho, Michael Loverude +1

Covariational reasoning -- how one thinks about the way changes in one quantity affect another quantity -- is essential to calculus and physics instruction alike. As physics is oft…

Towards understanding and characterizing expert covariational reasoning in physics

Charlotte Zimmerman, Alexis Olsho, Michael Loverude +3

Relating two quantities to describe a physical system or process is at the heart of "doing physics" for novices and experts alike. In this paper, we explore the ways in which exper…
