Phillips, A. M.; Gouvea, E. J.; Gravel, B. E.; Beachemin, P. -H.; Atherton, T. J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Computation is intertwined with essentially all aspects of physics research and is invaluable for physicists' careers. Despite its disciplinary importance, integration of computation into physics education remains a challenge and, moreover, has tended to be constructed narrowly as a route to solving physics problems. Here, we broaden Physics…
