Iowa State University
A new physics education research group has been formed at Iowa State University, which will carry out an integrated program to (1) develop new methods of instruction, particularly for large-enrollment classes; (2) develop improved curricula to support the new instructional methods; (3) carry out basic research in the teaching and learning of physics. The physics education group will work in close collaboration with the well-established chemistry education research group at Iowa State, led by Tom Greenbowe.
