Research Areas: Physics and Engineering Education Research
I study a broad array of topics in Physics and Engineering Education Research. This includes studying authentic problem-solving in STEM, student experience and performance in introductory STEM courses, and diversity and inclusion in physics. Current projects include:
- Studying the interplay between teaching problem-solving and equitable outcomes in physics
- Developing assessments of problem-solving at the graduate and undergraduate levels
- Studying in-situ cooperative group learning
- Re-thinking the introductory physics curriculum.
