项目摘要
Intellectual Merit: Recent national documents and studies of post-secondary education call attention to the importance of developing a scientifically literate citizenry and the current shortcomings in our efforts to address this need. Research in physics education has focused most closely on the knowledge students develop within courses, and to a more limited extent, whether students transfer knowledge from one course to the next. The extent to which students' physics learning influences their experience outside of school is dramatically under-researched. Such moments - experiences in which students actively use science concepts to see and experience their everyday world in meaningful, new ways - has been termed by educational psychologist Pugh to be 'transformative experiences.' The goal of this project is to develop assessment tools to identify in what ways physics courses engender transformative experiences (TE), and, through the iterative development of these assessment tools, examine the nature of transformative experiences and the classroom practices that foster them. Such work lays the groundwork for further transforming undergraduate education in the sciences by: (1) connecting physics education research with the body of research on transformative experience, providing a language for what has previously been an under-developed goal of physics instruction and an under-researched aspect of physics education; (2) developing assessment tools to allow instructors and researchers to quickly examine the prevalence of transformative experiences in physics classrooms; (3) investigating the nature of transformative experience, by providing case studies of students' experiences; and (4) examining courses rich in transformative experiences to understand the instructional practices that foster TE. Broader Impacts: The project is: (1) providing the physics education research community with a means of evaluating and fostering transformative experiences in undergraduate physics through the development and dissemination of a survey; (2) establishing collaborations between researchers in physics education and educational psychology from three separate campuses, building stronger links between discipline-based physics education research (which typically situates itself in the undergraduate classroom), and the broader education research community (where research primarily centers on K-12 classrooms); (3) addressing the needs of pre-service teachers, who are the primary student population of the courses being studied and the student-researchers employed on the project; and (4) serving a population traditionally underrepresented in the sciences - elementary education majors, 90% of whom are women.
智力价值:最近关于中学后教育的国家文件和研究提醒人们注意培养有科学素养的公民的重要性,以及我们目前在努力满足这一需要方面的不足。物理教育的研究最关注的是学生在课程中发展的知识,在更有限的程度上,学生是否将知识从一门课程转移到另一门课程。学生的物理学习在多大程度上影响了他们的校外体验,这方面的研究严重不足。这样的时刻--学生们积极运用科学概念,以有意义的、新的方式来看待和体验他们的日常世界--被教育心理学家普格称为“变革性体验”。本项目的目标是开发评估工具,以确定物理课程以何种方式产生变革性体验(TE),并通过迭代开发这些评估工具,检查变革性体验的性质和促进它们的课堂实践。这些工作为进一步改革理科本科教育奠定了基础:(1)将物理教育研究与变革经验研究的主体联系起来,为以前不发达的物理教学目标和物理教育中研究不足的方面提供了一种语言;(2)开发评估工具,使教师和研究人员能够快速检查物理课堂中变革经验的普遍程度;(3)通过提供学生经验的案例研究,调查变革经验的性质;以及(4)审查富含变革经验的课程,以了解促进变革经验的教学实践。更广泛的影响:该项目是:(1)通过开发和传播一项调查,为物理教育研究社区提供一种评估和促进本科物理变革经验的手段;(2)在三个不同校园的物理教育和教育心理学研究人员之间建立合作,在以学科为基础的物理教育研究(通常位于本科课堂)和更广泛的教育研究社区(研究主要集中在K-12课堂)之间建立更紧密的联系;(3)满足职前教师的需求,他们是所研究课程的小学生群体和项目雇用的学生-研究人员;以及(4)服务于传统上在科学领域代表性较低的人群--基础教育专业,其中90%是女性。
