Jones, David J.; Madison, Kirk W.; Wieman, Carl E. – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2015
We present a study of active learning pedagogies in an upper-division physics course. This work was guided by the principle of deliberate practice for the development of expertise, and this principle was used in the design of the materials and the orchestration of the classroom activities of the students. We present our process for efficiently…
