Reviews in Physics Education Research
Physics Education Research (PER) has produced a large body of research literature that has powerful
implications for physics instruction. Yet it is often difficult to extract the implications of
many research articles published over many years.
In the review articles published in this series, researchers help bridge research and practice,
bringing the results of extended, multi-year research and development projects to the instructional
community. This webpage is your introduction to a series of edited collections of peer-reviewed
review articles on a related topic.
