The Force Concept Inventory Across Continents: Testing Q-Matrix Transferability and Cross-Cultural Differences in Mechanics Reasoning
Wade Naylor, Raheeq Tahir, Alan S. Cornell +1
The Force Concept Inventory (FCI) is one of the most widely used research-based assessments in physics education, yet the assumption that its underlying cognitive structure is tran…
Dominant misconceptions and alluvial flows between Engineering and Physical Science students
Anna Chrysostomou, Alan S. Cornell, Wade Naylor
In this article we assess the comprehension of physics concepts by Physical Science and Engineering students enrolled in their first semester at the University of Johannesburg (UJ)…
A three-year comparative study of dominant misconceptions among first-year physics students at a South African university
Anna Chrysostomou, Alan S. Cornell, Wade Naylor
This article discusses a three-year study (2020 - 2022) of dominant misconceptions (DMs) for a large cohort of first-year physics course students at the University of Johannesburg…
Polarising questions in the Force Concept Inventory
Anna Chrysostomou, Emanuela Carleschi, Alan S. Cornell +1
The Force Concept Inventory (FCI) is a well-established physics education assessment tool used to evaluate students' comprehension of elementary mechanics principles. While it can…
Does transitioning to online classes mid-semester affect conceptual understanding?
Emanuela Carleschi, Anna Chrysostomou, Alan S. Cornell +1
The Force Concept Inventory (FCI) can be used as an assessment tool to measure conceptual gains in a cohort of students. The FCI uses a conceptions/"misconceptions" lens rather tha…
Gender gap and polarisation of physics on global courses
Allan L. Alinea, Wade Naylor
We extend on previous research on the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) given to first year classical mechanics students (N=66 students, over four years) pre and post score, for studen…
