Scientific paper

In collaboration with the Physics and Astronomy Education Research group at Rutgers University, three different types of student experiments_testing, application, and investigation design_have been developed and implemented in a calculus-based introductory course at California State University, Chico. Students working in small groups are engaged in designing and conducting their own experiments to test a physics principle, build a real-life device, solve a complex problem, or to conduct an open-inquiry investigation. In this poster we will illustrate examples of the design tasks and discuss instructional strategies of implementation.
