American Journal of Physics
written by Eugenia Etkina
This article is a text version of Eugenia Etkina's speech upon receiving the Millikan Medal at the 2014 Summer AAPT meeting. In the talk, Dr. Etkina shared an approach to learning and teaching physics that engages students learning introductory physics in the processes that physicists use to construct or make sense of physics concepts, physical quantities, and equations, as well as use of strategies to solve problems. This article describes the origins of the method, its characteristic features, research on its implementation, and available resources.
