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…
The impact of epistemology on learning: A case study from introductory physics
Laura Lising, Andrew Elby
We discuss a case study of the influence of epistemology on learning for a student in an introductory college physics course. An analysis of videotaped class work, written work, an…
