Grape expectations: direct thermographic imaging of electric fields in microwave Mie resonators

Kallan K. Ronholm, Yuchen Song, Aaron D. Slepkov

Internal electromagnetic fields determine the behaviour of dielectric nano-resonators, yet they remain exceptionally difficult to measure directly because subwavelength scales plac…

A comparison of integrated testlet and constructed-response question formats

Aaron D. Slepkov, Ralph C. Shiell

Constructed-response (CR) questions are a mainstay of introductory physics textbooks and exams. However, because of time, cost, and scoring reliability constraints associated with…

Benford's Law: Textbook Exercises and Multiple-choice Testbanks

Aaron D. Slepkov, Kevin B. Ironside, David DiBattista

Benford's Law describes the finding that the distribution of leading (or leftmost) digits of innumerable datasets follows a well-defined logarithmic trend, rather than an intuitive…

Integrated Testlets and the Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique

Aaron D. Slepkov

The increased use of multiple-choice (MC) questions in introductory-level physics final exams is largely hindered by reservations about its ability to test the broad cognitive doma…
