| Abstract Title: | Taking Responsibility for the Hidden Curriculum: Practices and Challenges in addressing the broader goals in physics education |
|---|---|
| Abstract: | An invitational interactive poster session This interactive poster session will lead a community discussion around two major themes: 1) what are ways and models for us to enact and make explicit our efforts to address the hidden curriculum (beyond standard content learning) in physics classes, and 2) what barriers are faced in doing so. We will emphasize how we might take responsibility for what actually happens in the classroom, as well as the historical and institutional resources and barriers that we face. Four posters will highlight the variety of scales and approaches that may be used to address the hidden curriculum and serve as a focal point for our collective discussions. Be prepared to share your own successes and challenges. We will begin discussions by focusing on our roles and goals as educators, and will happily draw on theory and practice alike. |
