SyMETRI Meeting Tuesday Oct 20 2015 1:00 – 2:30

Cynthia Nicol will present ideas from her community-based research considering the importance of building research relationships for research that makes a difference.

Marina Milner-Bolotin has suggested we read the open-source paper: Morphew, J. W., Mestre, J. P., Ross, B. H., & Strand, N. E. (2015). Do experts and novices direct attention differently in examining physics diagrams? A study of change detection using the flicker technique. Physics Review Special Topics – Physics Education Research, 11, 020104.

Questions to think with: What are the implications of these findings in how we use images in math and science teaching? How can we us these research findings in bridging the novice-expert gap?
