Methods for Analyzing Pathways through a Physics Major
, 2016 Physics Education Research frequently investigates what students studying physics do on small time scales (e.g. single courses, observations within single courses), or post-education time scales (e.g., what jobs do physics majors get?) but there is ...

Importance of math prerequisites for performance in introductory physics
Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021 Previous work has looked at the relationship between high school preparation and student performance in calculus-based introductory mechanics (physics 1) courses. Here, we extend that work to look at performance in introductory calculus-based electricity
