In this paper, we seek to evaluate the extent to which students can follow a deductive reasoning chain when it is presented to them. A great deal of instruction in introductory physics courses is centered on presenting students with a logical argument that starts from first principles and systematically leads to a particular conclusion. This…

Verostek, Mike; Griston, Molly; Botello, Jesús; Zwickl, Benjamin – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
Understanding how physicists solve problems can guide the development of methods that help students learn and improve at solving complex problems. Leveraging the framework of cognitive task analysis, we conducted semistructured interviews with theoretical physicists (N=11) to gain insight into the cognitive processes and skills that they use in…

Green, Judith L.; Baker, W. Douglas; Chian, Monaliza Maximo; Vanderhoof, Carmen; Hooper, LeeAnna; Kelly, Gregory J.; Skukauskaite, Audra; Kalainoff, Melinda Z. – Review of Research in Education, 2020
This review presents theoretical underpinnings supporting microethnographic-discourse analytic (ME/DA) approaches to studying educational phenomena. The review is presented in two parts. Part 1 provides an analytic review of two seminal reviews of literature that frame theoretical and methodological developments of microethnography and functions…

Panusch, Martin; Heering, Peter; Singh, Rajinder – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2010
In 1923, R.A. Millikan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the elementary charge of electricity and on the photoelectric effect. Recently, historical research had a focus on Millikan's publication practice, as well as on the role of his assistant, Harvey Fletcher. Several studies have raised doubts on whether Millikan can…
