Rev. Phys. Educ. Res. 19, 010101 (2023) – Published 5 January 2023 In person introductory physics courses provide sufficient support to allow most low-performing students to pass, while remote learning during COVID did not.     Graduate program reform in one department of physics and astronomy: From tragedy to more progressive policies and an evolving culture Ramón Barthelemy, MacKenzie Lenz, Alexis Knaub, Jordan Gerton, and Pearl Sandick Phys. Rev. Phys. Educ. Res. 19, 010102 (2023) – Published 9 January 2023 Policy changes can make a difference in the lives of graduate students, and help mitigate potential negative experiences, but may not address all challenges and issues within a department's culture.     Analysis and comparison of students' conceptual understanding of symmetry arguments in Gauss's and Ampere's laws Esmeralda Campos, Eder Hernandez, Pablo Barniol, and Genaro Zavala Phys. Rev. Phys. Educ. Res. 19, 010103 (2023) – Published 24 January 2023 In introductory physics, problem solving with Gauss's and Ampere's laws should start with their full integral or differential form rather than with a simplified version.       American Physical Society: 1 Physics Ellipse, College Park, MD 20740 ©2023 American Physical Society | All rights reserved   You are receiving this email because you are subscribed to Table of Content alerts.
