Maria Al Dehaybes; Johan Deprez; Paul van Kampen; Mieke De Cock – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
When learning physics, students need more than just an understanding of mathematical and physical concepts. Integrating the two fields is crucial, as research indicates that students often struggle even when they have a strong grasp of both. In this paper, we use the heat equation as an example from higher education. Given the importance of the…

Munfaridah, Nuril; Avraamidou, Lucy; Goedhart, Martin – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Using multiple representations (MR) such as graphs, symbols, diagrams, and text, is central to teaching and learning in physics classrooms. While different studies have provided evidence of the positive impact of the use of MR on physics learning, a comprehensive overview of existing literature on the use of MR in physics education, especially at…

Young, Nicholas T.; Heckler, Andrew F. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2018
In the context of a generic harmonic oscillator, we investigated students' accuracy in determining the period, frequency, and angular frequency from mathematical and graphical representations. In a series of studies including interviews, free response tests, and multiple-choice tests developed in an iterative process, we assessed students in both…
