Direct linkDancy, Melissa; Henderson, Charles; Turpen, Chandra – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016
The lack of knowledge about how to effectively spread and sustain the use of research-based instructional strategies is currently a significant barrier to the improvement of undergraduate physics education. In this paper we address this lack of knowledge by reporting on an interview study of 35 physics faculty, of varying institution types, who…

Turpen, Chandra; Dancy, Melissa; Henderson, Charles – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016
In order to promote sustained and impactful educational transformation, it is essential for change agents to understand more about faculty perceptions associated with either adopting or not adopting a research-based instructional strategy (RBIS). In this paper, we use interviews with 35 physics faculty to examine barriers and affordances to the…

Henderson, Charles; Dancy, Melissa; Niewiadomska-Bugaj, Magdalena – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2012
During the fall of 2008 a web survey, designed to collect information about pedagogical knowledge and practices, was completed by a representative sample of 722 physics faculty across the United States (50.3% response rate). This paper presents partial results to describe how 20 potential predictor variables correlate with faculty knowledge about…
