Drawing from the author's own teaching, this article explores beginning steps for incorporating video games in English classrooms and details the logistical and pedagogical challenges that occur when teachers include digital interactive texts in the curriculum.

Video analysis tools such as Tracker are used to study "mechanical motion" captured by photography. One can also imagine a similar tool for tracking "thermal motion" captured by thermography. Since its introduction to physics education, thermal imaging has been used to visualize phenomena that are invisible to the naked eye and…

Students in introductory college physics often have wide ranges of preparation, making it challenging to deliver effective instruction for all. While numerous educational products and strategies have been shown to be broadly effective, there is a need for research-based online materials that support personalized learning and focus specifically on…
