Mathematical Sensemaking as Seeking Coherence between Calculations and Concepts: Instruction and Assessments for Introductory Physics
Eric Kuo, Michael M. Hull, Andrew Elby +1
What kind of problem-solving instruction can help students apply what they have learned to solve the new and unfamiliar problems they will encounter in the future? We propose that…
"Classical-ish": Negotiating the boundary between classical and quantum particles
Benjamin W. Dreyfus, Erin Ronayne Sohr, Ayush Gupta +1
Quantum mechanics can seem like a departure from everyday experience of the physical world, but constructivist theories assert that learners build new ideas from their existing one…
'Because math': Epistemological stance or defusing social tension in QM?
Erin Ronayne Sohr, Benjamin W. Dreyfus, Ayush Gupta +1
In collaborative small-group work, physics students need to both manage social conflict and grapple with conceptual and epistemological differences. In this paper, we document seve…
"Bring it on": Explaining persistence in science at the intersection of identity and epistemology
Luke D. Conlin, Jennifer Richards, Ayush Gupta +1
Research has documented a sharp decline in students' interest and persistence in science, starting in middle school, particularly among students from underrepresented populations.…
Incorporating Disciplinary Practices Into Characterizations of Progress in Responsive Teaching
Jennifer Richards, Andrew Elby, Ayush Gupta
Responsive teaching, in which teachers adapt instruction based on close attention to the substance of students' ideas, is typically characterized along two dimensions: the level of…
Toward affect-inclusive models of cognitive dynamics: Coupling epistemological resources and emotions
Ayush Gupta, Brian A. Danielak, Andrew Elby
Many prominent lines of research on student's reasoning and conceptual change within learning sciences and physics education research have not attended to the role of learners' aff…
