Links to other Physics Education Pages

Some Education Research Groups:

• Iowa State.
  They have a nice (and probably the most comprehensive and up-to-date) set of links to other PER groups there, too.
• University of Maryland .
  Lots of useful pages, including most of their publications, "challenge problems", Maryland Physics Expectations Survey, etc. ) They have a number of more detailed "lists of links" than we could possibly provide here, see for example their list of per homepages, curriculum materials , and online papers .
  
• University of Minnesota .
  Their main focus is on Context Rich Problems and Collaborative Learning.
  
• University of Washington .
  They started this game, with research into student mis/preconceptions. The source of the recitation "tutorial" method.
  
• Mazur's Group (Harvard).
  Project Galileo: Concept tests, large lecture techniques, and more. Here is the link to construct a web page using Mazur's Interactive Learning Tookit"
  
• North Carolina State.
  SCALE-UP, the modified introductory classroom approach at UNC (Bob Beichner's group).
• And more: e.g. Arizona State University.
  
  

Other Education Pages:

• Valeria Otero at our CU school of education is doing science education research.
• Richard Hake's research in physics education page (with many useful links and references)
• Elaine Seymour's "revitalizing science education" page.
• Collaborative Learning .
  Detailed instructions specifically targeted to forming and using groups in classrooms.
  
• Classroom Assessment
  Detailed instructions regarding a variety of different tools to use in the classroom. A great place to learn about a variety of novel classroom techniques!
  
• SALG
  This is the place to set up a survey of student opinions regarding your teaching methods. It's a nice tool, quick and easy to set up for you and for your students.
• TextRev
  Similar to SALG but even quicker and simpler, this site is dedicated purely to setting you up with a student survey regarding your textbook.
