Physics Teaching and Learning - Sunal Dennis W.
- Challenging the Paradigm
Physics Teaching and Learning: Challenging the Paradigm, RISE Volume 8, focuses on research contributions challenging the basic assumptions, ways of thinking, and practices commonly accepted in physics education. Teaching physics involves multifaceted, research-based, value added strategies designed to improve academic engagement and depth of learning.
In this volume, researchers, teaching and curriculum reformers, and reform implementers discuss a range of important issues. The volume should be considered as a first step in thinking through what physics teaching and physics learning might address in teacher preparation programs, in-service professional development programs, and in classrooms.
To facilitate thinking about research-based physics teaching and learning each chapter in the volume was organized around five common elements:
1. A significant review of research in the issue or problem area.
2. Themes addressed are relevant for the teaching and learning of K-16 science
3. Discussion of original research by the author(s) addressing the major theme of the
chapter.
4. Bridge gaps between theory and practice and/or research and practice.
5. Concerns and needs are addressed of school/community context stakeholders
including students, teachers, parents, administrators, and community members.
