Using a reflective case study methodology we share our experience incorporating a learning analytics platform into our basic course. In doing so, we highlight the role this technology can play in terms of identifying areas of inconsistency as well as informing ways to improve overall course …

A Journey, Not A Destination, James L. Phelps

Educational Considerations

Instead of a compilation of facts, physics became a way of thinking about problem solving. The “unified field” theory was the start of …
