As the field of physics education research grows, it is increasingly difficult for newcomers to gain an appreciation of the major findings across all sub-domains, discern global themes, and recognize gaps in the literature. The International Handbook of Physics Education Research: Learning Physics incorporates the understanding of both physics and education concepts and provides an extensive review of the literature in a wide range of important topics. The International Handbook of Physics Education Research: Learning Physics includes: -- Subject matter instruction and problem solving with specific topics including factors in student achievement in physics. -- Cognitive aspects to learning physics, including collaborative learning, higher order learning, and fostering critical thinking skills. -- Information about student interest, attitudes, motivation, values, beliefs, and opinions toward learning physics. Readers will find this comprehensive treatment of the literature useful in understanding physics education research and extending to all the physical sciences including chemistry, mathematics, astronomy, and other related disciplines.SCIENCE / Study & TeachingbisacshSCIENCE / Study & TeachingbisacshHeron, Paula R.
