The Physics Education Research Group at Colorado (PER@C) is one of largest research programs in physics education research (PER) in the nation. Our research group develops and studies: uses of technology in physics education, assessments (conceptual, epistemological, and belief-oriented), theoretical models of students' learning physics, social and contextual foundations of student learning, examination of successful educational reforms and replication studies of such reforms, and student problem solving in physics. We sponsor a number of educational reforms in physics, which range from pre-college to post-doctoral. The research group includes faculty, staff, and students from both the Department of Physics and the School of Education.

 

Upcoming events

Ongoing group meetings:
Thursdays, 12-1:30 pm,      Duane 11th floor Reading Room

Featured Project: PISEC

The JILA Physics Frontier Center Partnerships for Informal Science Education in the Community(PISEC) Program provides opportunities for university students (undergraduates, graduate students, and post docs) to teach inquiry-based science activities to K-12 populations that are underrepresented in science. More
At PISEC, we conduct cutting-edge research on informal science environments as part of the Physics Education Research group at CU Boulder, PER@C. We study the impact of our program on children and also university students. Read more
