Joseph MacMillan

Current Research in Peer Instruction in Physics Education

A large amount of research has now been done in how students learn physics, and best methods to teach them physics. I will describe the current best practices recommended by research and how they can be implemented in classrooms of any size.

 

Dr. Joseph MacMillan is a Physics Lecturer at UOIT and received his PhD in Physics from Queen's University at Kingston. His areas of interest are astrophysics, cosmology, and quantum mechanics.
