Thematic analysis of student perceptions of resources and demands experienced in introductory physics
Avital Pelakh, Melanie L. Good, Eric Kuo +6
The current work aims to better understand student course experiences for those who reported negative perceptions in introductory physics. We conducted semi-structured interviews w…
A longitudinal analysis of students' motivational characteristics in introductory physics courses: Gender differences
Emily Marshman, Zeynep Y. Kalender, Christian Schunn +2
The lack of diversity and the under-performance of underrepresented students in STEM courses have been the focus of researchers in the last decade. In particular, many hypotheses h…
A mismatch between self-efficacy and performance: Undergraduate women in engineering tend to have lower self-efficacy despite earning higher grades than men
Kyle M. Whitcomb, Z. Yasemin Kalender, Timothy J. Nokes-Malach +2
There is a significant underrepresentation of women in many Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) majors and careers. Prior research has shown that self-efficacy…
A new approach for uncovering student resources with multiple-choice questions
Nolan K. Weinlader, Eric Kuo, Benjamin M. Rottman +1
The traditional approach to studying student understanding presents a question and uses the student answers to make inferences about their knowledge. However, this method does not…
Using causal networks to represent the targets of resource coordination
Eric Kuo, Nolan K. Weinlader, Benjamin M. Rottman +1
The resources framework emphasizes the potential productivity of student intuitions for constructing a canonical understanding of physics. It models learning as the progressive coo…
