Sayer, Ryan; Maries, Alexandru; Singh, Chandralekha – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2017
Learning quantum mechanics is challenging, even for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students. Research-validated interactive tutorials that build on students' prior knowledge can be useful tools to enhance student learning. We have been investigating student difficulties with quantum mechanics pertaining to the double-slit experiment in…

Gonza´lez-Go´mez, David; Rodríguez, Diego Airado; Can~ada-Can~ada, Florentina; Jeong, Jin Su – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
Currently, there are a number of educational applications that allow students to reinforce theoretical or numerical concepts through an interactive way. More precisely, in the field of the analytical chemistry, MATLAB has been widely used to write easy-to-implement code, facilitating complex performances and/or tedious calculations. The main…

Zuza, Kristina; Almudí, José-Manuel; Leniz, Ane; Guisasola, Jenaro – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2014
In traditional teaching, the fundamental concepts of electromagnetic induction are usually quickly analyzed, spending most of the time solving problems in a more or less rote manner. However, physics education research has shown that the fundamental concepts of the electromagnetic induction theory are barely understood by students. This article…
