Physics Education Research

Physics Education Research—All of the faculty in the Physics Department are dedicated to excellence in teaching. Each course receives a detailed biannual review, with the objective of improving its content and effectiveness. Beyond this, however, a number of faculty are developing new strategies to help our students to learn. Our primary interest is identifying those best practices that make the Mines educational experience uniquely beneficial. However, many of these projects have attracted national attention as examples of high-quality teaching.
