Longitudinal study of student conceptual understanding in electricity and magnetism
We have investigated the long-term effect of student-centered instruction at the freshman level on juniors’ performance on a conceptual survey of Electricity and Magnetism E&M . We measured student performance on a research-based conceptual instrument—the Brief Electricity & Magnetism Assessment BEMA –over a period of 8 semesters 2004–2007 . Concurrently, we introduced the University of Washing...
متن کاملObservations on student difficulties with mathematics in upper-division electricity and magnetism
We discuss common difficulties in upper-division electricity and magnetism (E&M) in the areas of Gauss’s law, vector calculus, and electric potential using both quantitative and qualitative evidence. We also show that many of these topical difficulties may be tied to student difficulties with mathematics. At the junior level, some students struggle to combine mathematical calculations and physi...
