CURE-like, not cure-all: Varying broad relevance in experimentation labs produces similar student outcomes
Elly Markert, Mike Verostek, Matthew Dew +6
Physics labs that engage students in practices authentic to experimental physics (experimentation-based labs) are being implemented to modernize the undergraduate physics curriculu…
Share, Rotate, Split: The Effects of Group Work Role Distributions on Student Outcomes
Jacob Feinleib, Matthew Dew, N. G. Holmes
Education literature recommends many different strategies for structuring student group work in labs. Many of these strategies, however, have not been sufficiently evaluated for th…
What topics of peer interactions correlate with student performance in physics courses?
L. N. Simpfendoerfer, Meagan Sundstrom, Matthew Dew +1
Research suggests that interacting with more peers about physics course material is correlated with higher student performance. Some studies, however, have demonstrated that differ…
New perspectives on student reasoning about measurement uncertainty: More or better data
Andy Schang, Matthew Dew, Emily M. Stump +2
Uncertainty is an important and fundamental concept in physics education. Students are often first exposed to uncertainty in introductory labs, expand their knowledge across lab co…
Context affects student thinking about sources of uncertainty in classical and quantum mechanics
Emily M. Stump, Matthew Dew, Gina Passante +1
Measurement uncertainty is an important topic in the undergraduate laboratory curriculum. Previous research on student thinking about experimental measurement uncertainty has focus…
Group Dynamics in Inquiry-based Labs: Gender Inequities and the Efficacy of Partner Agreements
Matthew Dew, Emma Hunt, Viranga Perera +3
Recent studies provide evidence that social constructivist pedagogical methods such as active learning, interactive engagement, and inquiry-based learning, while pedagogically more…
Training the trainer: Professional Development for High School Physics Teachers with Low Physics Background
Anne Wang, Jonathan Perry, Matthew Dew +2
The shortage of highly qualified high school physics teachers is a national problem. The Mitchell Institute Physics Enhancement Program (MIPEP) is a two-week professional developme…
Student Responses to Changes in Introductory Physics Learning due to COVID-19 Pandemic
Matthew Dew, Jonathan Perry, Lewis Ford +2
As a result of the spread of COVID-19 during spring 2020, many colleges and universities across the US, and beyond, were compelled to move entirely to remote, online instruction, o…
Gendered Performance Differences in Introductory Physics: A Study from a Large Land-Grant University
Matthew Dew, Jonathan Perry, Lewis Ford +2
Studies examining gender differences in introductory physics show a consensus when it comes to a gender gap on conceptual assessments; however, the story is not as clear when it co…
