Physics Education Seminar
in 120 PAN
Speaker: Brita Nellermoe, University of St. Thomas
Subject: Teaching Physics and Self-Efficacy to Pre-Service Teachers; The Evolution of Physics 101 at UST
Over the last 4 years the Physics 101 (Physics for Elementary Teachers) course at the University of St. Thomas has undergone a major shift in dynamic, structure and course goals. Here we will discuss those changes and the integration of Writing Across the Curriculum - Writing to Learn and Unit Projects to enhance student learning and self efficacy. Gains in physics knowledge and self-efficacy will be discussed as well as areas of improvement and future plans.
