measures. Here, we present a comparison of the efficacy of a hands-on integratedmode of conducting physics experiments via experiment-centric pedagogy (ECP) with thetraditional laboratory mode (non-ECP) of teaching undergraduate students enrolled in theIntroduction to Physics Experiment. We conclude that these two approaches are complementaryto one another. Undergraduate students who were enrolled in the Introduction to Physicslaboratory practical (N = 30) were a case study to elicit their epistemological beliefs aboutphysics laboratory work and their views on social engagement and academic anxiety. Parametricand nonparametric comparisons of central tendency were employed to measure the meandifferences between students using the ECP mode and non

areas of physics, such aselectromagnetics and modern physics, offering opportunities to design implementations tailoredto the specific needs of each course. The accessibility of free repositories with printable modelsreinforces the feasibility of this strategy to enrich experimental teaching in a sustainable andversatile way.Our findings align with existing concerns about the effectiveness of physics laboratories inpromoting conceptual understanding [1], [2] and [3]. While our results suggest that studentsperceive improvements in data acquisition, further research is needed to assess the impact ofmodel-based reasoning, as explored by others [4].Finally, although the survey revealed some initial difficulty in working with and analyzing thedata

practical physics labs, especially in historically black collegesand universities (HBCUs). Also, the difficulty undergraduate students have in making connectionsbetween their theory teachings and their practical exercises, as well as how pertinent these labsessions are to their everyday lives, has led to the conclusion that physics experiments are highlyabstract. This study used low-cost, interactive, code-free, portable technology to improve students’practical experiences and report how these experiments are applied in everyday activities. Thestudy involved 50 STEM students registered for the Introduction to physics laboratory course.According to the students’ feedback and the motivated strategy for learning questionnairesadopted, they were very

ConsiderationsThe immersive video methodology combined with the flipped classroom methodologyproved to be a promising technology from the perspective of increasing students'motivation to read the material before class. The use of this technology allowed forincreased difficulty in performing the experiments, avoiding the so-called “cook recipes”in the laboratory. Regarding performance in solving the post-class exercises, it was foundthat more work is needed with “high-order thinking skills” activities, aiming to furtherdevelop this skill in our students.AcknowledgmentTo the students of the XXXXXXXXX for kindly answering the perceptionquestionnaires.

mathematics, lack of laboratories in schools, or simply due to the scarcity ofphysics teachers in secondary education [8].In university education, teaching STEM areas implementing active learning strategiesparticularly in the teaching of active learning [9], [10], [11], [12] and [13] has open manyopportunities and offer a variety of classroom dynamics and strategies that transformstudents’ role from passive to active learners. Such is the case of implementing InteractiveLearning Demonstrative methodologies (ILD) introduced by [14] and integrating thelaboratory into physics classes [15] and [16].The reasons for the lack of motivation [6] that primary and secondary students have inlearning physics are difficulty in understanding what they are being

IntroductionSpatial ability, the capacity to visualize, manipulate, and reason about objects in space, is anessential cognitive skill in engineering and STEM education. These skills underpin critical taskssuch as interpreting blueprints, solving physics problems, and developing innovative solutions tocomplex engineering challenges [1]. Despite their importance, spatial abilities remainunderdeveloped in many educational systems, with significant disparities arising from varyingschool environments, teaching approaches, and students' intrinsic and extrinsic motivationalfactors. While previous research has explored the connections between spatial

related to quantum optomechanical sensors, which was followed by a postdoc in physics education research at the University of Colorado Boulder. Since that time, Ben has pursued research on the nature of physics expertise, how expertise is developed, and the relationship between formal education and professional success. This has included research on graduate education, career preparation for optics and quantum jobs, and laboratory education. Ben regularly teaches courses that integrate computation, laboratory work, and projects. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025 Investigating Opportunities for Growth and Increased Diversity in Quantum Information Science and
