The K-State Physics Education Research Group explores physics teaching and learning through approaches from physics education research, learning sciences, and science education. Their work translates research findings into practical strategies for enhancing physics instruction. Recent focus areas include studying student acquisition of physics and mathematical concepts, developing physicist-like thinking patterns, and disseminating research insights to educators across all levels. The group also creates educational materials for secondary and higher education while providing professional development opportunities for science teachers and physics faculty through both physical and digital platforms.
