教育: BS, Baylor University, 2006; MS, University of Washington, 2008; PhD, University of Washington, 2011. 2011年起在SPU工作.
艾米·罗伯逊 coordinated the Learning Assistant program for the introductory algebra- and calculus-based physics courses from 2011 to 2016. Prior to coming to SPU, Dr. 罗伯逊 was a graduate student with the 物理 Education Group at the University of Washington and a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow.
Her research interests center around instructional approaches that seek to understand and build on students’ intuitive ideas in science. She uses her research to support these approaches by identifying, 描述, and illustrating how students’ ideas can be the starting points for developing sophisticated scientific understandings and practices; by studying the development of teaching practices that attend to students’ intuitive ideas and then identifying what supported that development; and by understanding the relationship between this kind of instruction and other constructs in the literature. She is the co-editor of a book that synthesizes research on this approach to instruction titled Responsive Teaching in Science and Mathematics.
Dr. 罗伯逊 is PI of the federally funded grant, “Collaborative Research: University Student Conceptual 资源 for Understanding 物理.” This project seeks to identify student resources for understanding forces and mechanical waves in the context of introductory physics instruction and to develop and test curricular materials that build on student resources. She is co-PI of two additional grants, one that studies elementary teacher learning about energy, and one that identifies best-practices for creating inclusive physics learning environments.
