Complexity in Mathematics Education
Brent Davis, Pratim Sengupta
This chapter presents a brief review of complexity research in mathematics education. We argue how research on complexity, as it pertains to mathematics education, can be viewed as…
Understanding Electric Current Using Agent-Based Models: Connecting the Micro-level with Flow Rate
Pratim Sengupta, Uri Wilensky
Rate-based processes comprise an important set of scientific phenomena, as well as an important part of the K12 science curricula. Electric current is one such phenomenon, which is…
Toward a Phenomenology of Computational Thinking in STEM Education
Pratim Sengupta, Amanda Dickes, Amy Farris
In this chapter, we argue for an epistemological shift from viewing coding and computational thinking as mastery over computational logic and symbolic forms, to viewing them as a m…
Open Science, Public Engagement and the University
Pratim Sengupta, Marie-Claire Shanahan
Contemporary debates on "open science" mostly focus on the pub- lic accessibility of the products of scientific and academic work. In contrast, this paper presents arguments for "o…
Development of Disciplined Interpretation Using Computational Modeling in the Elementary Science Classroom
Amy Voss Farris, Amanda Catherine Dickes, Pratim Sengupta
Studies of scientists building models show that the development of scientific models involves a great deal of subjectivity. However, science as experienced in school settings typic…
