Examining faculty choices while implementing the Next Gen PET curriculum through Revealed Causal Mapping
Next Generation Physical Science and Everyday Thinking (Next Gen PET) is a research-based, active-learning physical science curriculum for general education physics courses, with a focus on pre-service and in-service elementary school teachers. During pre-COVID introduction of this curricula at higher-education institutions across the country, instructors implementing the curriculum were recruited to participate in faculty online learning communities (FOLCs). In this project, we conduct a secondary analysis on transcriptions of recorded FOLC meetings through Revealed Causal Mapping (RCM), a qualitative technique to create causal maps composed of interconnected causal statements. This method allows us to examine instructors' decision-making while implementing the Next Gen PET curriculum. In this paper, we share insights about how instructors decide to form groups, specifically group composition and frequency of group changes. We found that instructors may have their own preconceived ideas about the best ways to form groups, sometimes contrary to what current research suggests.
