Gupta, Ayush; Elby, Andrew; Danielak, Brian A. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2018
Evidence from psychology, cognitive science, and neuroscience suggests that cognition and emotions are coupled. Education researchers have also documented correlations between emotions (such as joy, anxiety, fear, curiosity, boredom) and academic performance. Nonetheless, most research on students' reasoning and conceptual change within the…

Wenner, Julianne A.; Simmonds, Paul J. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2017
On graduation, teacher candidates (TCs) are typically underprepared to teach science, particularly physical science, whereas physics graduates frequently lack training in teaching or effective communication. In response, we created two models for interdisciplinary peer learning where TCs were paired with either graduate or undergraduate physics…
