Identifying and Addressing Difficulties: Reflections on the empirical and theoretical basis of an influential approach to improving physics education
written by
Paula R. L. Heron
published by the American Association of Physics Teachers edited by Charles R. Henderson, Kathleen A. Harper, and Amy D. Robertson
The past few decades have seen dramatic growth in Physics Education Research (PER). Along with this growth, there have been significant shifts with respect to which questions to pursue, how to pursue them, and even how to talk about findings. Throughout this evolution, the Physics Education Group at the University of Washington has conducted an influential program of research and curriculum development and maintained a focus on conceptual understanding and reasoning skills. One tradition closely associated with the group is improving student learning by identifying and addressing student difficulties. This paper attempts to set forth the empirical and theoretical basis of this tradition, to place it in the broader context of PER, and to outline an agenda for future research that represents a natural outgrowth of the empirical achievements of the past in the light of emerging theoretical developments.
