How to Teach a Teacher: Challenges and Opportunities in Physics Teacher Education in Germany and the USA
Ben Van Dusen, Christoph Vogelsang, Joseph Taylor +1
Preparing future physics teachers for the demanding nature of their profession is an important and complex endeavor. Teacher education systems must provide a structure for the cohe…
Tenets of QuantCrit
Ben Van Dusen, Jayson Nissen
Quantitative Critical (QuantCrit) research is a relatively new field of study grounded in critical theory (Crenshaw, 1990; Ladson-Billings, 2006; 2013). The nascency of QuantCrit h…
Teacher-Driven Professional Development and the Pursuit of a Sophisticated Understanding of Inquiry
Mike Ross, Ben Van Dusen, Samson Sherman +1
The need for highly qualified physics teachers in the U.S. is well established, and reform efforts are underway to develop novel and innovative teacher professional development exp…
LASSO: A New Tool to Support Instructors and Researchers
Ben Van Dusen
We developed the Learning About STEM Student Outcomes (LASSO) online assessment platform to increase instructor use of research-based assessments (RBAs). LASSO does this by making…
Missing data and bias in physics education research: A case for using multiple imputation
Jayson Nissen, Robin Donatello, Ben Van Dusen
Physics education researchers (PER) commonly use complete-case analysis to address missing data. For complete-case analysis, researchers discard all data from any student who is mi…
Modernizing use of regression models in physics education research: a review of hierarchical linear modeling
Ben Van Dusen, Jayson Nissen
Physics education researchers (PER) often analyze student data with single-level regression models (e.g., linear and logistic regression). However, education datasets can have hier…
